Grading System
Assessment
Modules will be assessed by a mixture of coursework and exams. Module outlines will be provided to students after the nomination deadline.
As per College guidelines, students will receive feedback on their coursework between 2 – 3 weeks after submission.
If you fail an exam but achieve over 40% on the module overall grade, you have passed the module and a re-sit exam is not required.
If you have not achieved a minimum of 40% on the module overall, you may be required to re-sit the exam or resubmit coursework to achieve a pass mark for the module. Resitting an exam or resubmitting coursework will result in the module being capped at the pass rate of 50%.
Students may only resit an exam or resubmit a piece of coursework once. Students have the opportunity to re-sit failed exams in the August/September resit period. The decision on whether you resit an exam to pass a module rests with your home institution.
