The family of a student who took his own life after wrongly being told he would not be eligible to graduate have settled a civil court action against the University of Glasgow.
Ethan Scott Brown, 23, was due to graduate in December 2024 after studying geography at the Scottish university.
His family, from Coatbridge in North Lanarkshire, said that in September of that year, Ethan was notified he had not been awarded a grade for one course and would therefore not be eligible to graduate with an Honours degree.
They said that as a result he went on to take his own life on 13 December 2024, the day he should have been graduating, and was found dead in his bedroom by his mother Tracy Scott.
Ms Scott, who later collected her son's degree posthumously, has called for a fatal accident inquiry (FAI) to be held into his death.
The university has said it is "profoundly sorry" and is implementing a series of recommendations following a review.
In a statement released through solicitor Aamer Anwar on Tuesday, the family said: "Following the suicide of University of Glasgow student Ethan Brown, we launched a civil action which has now been settled by the university.
"It was only after Ethan's family challenged the university's handling of his academic results that an internal investigation established he had been incorrectly graded - Ethan should in fact have graduated with a 2:1 honours degree and the error had not been identified by university staff, two internal examination boards or an external examination board.
"The family were devastated to learn the mistake had passed through multiple levels of the university's assessment and examination process without being detected.
"Despite Ethan disclosing concerns about his mental health, he was not provided with appropriate support by the university that may have saved his life."
The family are due to meet Scotland's Education Secretary Mairi McAllan on Wednesday.
The settlement sum with the university has not been disclosed.
Searches for "truth and accountability" around Ethan's death should continue, the family said.
The statement added: "The family continue to call for a full and transparent investigation into the university's academic processes, decision-making and student welfare procedures, or it is only a matter of time before another family experiences the same tragic loss."

A University of Glasgow spokesperson said: "The university is profoundly sorry that Ethan tragically took his own life and fully understands the deep distress this has caused his family.
"We repeat our sincere apology as well as our deepest sympathy.
"Following an internal investigation into assessment regulations, the university self-referred to the Scottish Funding Council.
"The Quality Assurance Agency subsequently carried out a targeted peer review, which resulted in a series of recommendations for action.
"The university fully accepted the recommendations and is on track to implement them."
