Exemptions
The clause(s) listed below describe where an exemption to the Regulations exists.
It is not possible to Refer in or Repeat the compulsory period abroad.

Students will be required to complete or repeat outstanding or missing assessment as necessary.

Disclaimer
As a research-led University, we undertake a continuous review of our programmes to ensure quality enhancement and to manage our resources. As a result, these regulations may be revised during a student’s period of registration, however, any revision will be balanced against the requirement that the student should receive the educational service expected. Please read our Disclaimer to see why, when and how changes may be made to a student’s programme.
