Part F – Change of Studies 

1.1 A change of studies occurs when a student transfers their registration from one programme to a different programme. 

  

1.2 A student may only change their studies with the agreement, given on academic grounds, of the relevant Programme Leaders and where the timing of such a change is not prejudicial to the academic progress of the student.  

  

1.3 No student may change from one programme to another unless it is clear that they have adequate opportunity to complete all the assessments on the new programme in the teaching session assigned to the current cohort of students on that programme Level. 

  

1.4 A change of studies may only take place where the transfer is explicitly approved by the importing Programme Leader, evidenced by the relevant signature on the student transfer form. In the case of a joint programme, authorisation from both importing Programme Leaders is required. 

  

1.5 In allowing a student to change their studies, the University will not give an undertaking that the student will be entitled to support from any financial sponsor to pursue the new programme.
