Important Dates

Applications:

You may apply at any time between January and September but if you intend to sit your first examinations in May of the following year, your complete application must be received at the University by 17 September.

Initial Registration:

Offer Letters and Registration Forms are sent to candidates throughout the year as soon as applications are accepted. Once you have received an Offer Letter and Registration Form, you will be able to pay, register and start your study. Study material will only be sent to you if you have completed the Registration Form and paid the required fee. This Initial Registration Fee should however reach the University by 30 November in the year before you wish to sit your first examination.

Continuing Registration:

In order to maintain your registration until you complete the programme, you will be required to pay an annual continuing registration fee. Each year, normally in June, the University will send you an invoice which should be paid before 1 September.

Examinations:

Examinations are held once per year, usually in May and June. Registration as an External student and receipt of study material does not mean that you are automatically entered for examinations. You will have to apply to enter the examinations however instructions are given in the course regulations. The deadline for applying to sit May / June examinations is 1 February in the same year.

This provides an opportunity for graduates of any discipline to gain an additional undergraduate degree by following a shorter than normal programme, successfully completing nine full units rather than twelve. This can normally be achieved in a minimum of two years with the exception of the BSc Economics, BSc Economics & Finance, BSc Development & Economics and the BSc Information Systems & Management.
