    • All students are required to take 120 credits in each academic year. It is not possible to take less, or more than 120 credits.
    • Students should normally take a balance of 60-60 credits worth of modules in each semester. A 75-45 split might be accepted as an exception, but it will mean a workload-heavy Semester 1 that students may find challenging. A 45-75 split is not permitted.
    • Some programmes allow modules to be taken at a different level of the student’s programme of study (first year = Level 4, second year = Level 5, final year = Level 6), but we strongly recommend that students going into their second year choose all their credits to be at Level 5, and students going into their final year choose all their credits to be at Level 6. This is to ensure that students meet their progression and/or degree classification requirements as explained in the Academic Regulations.
