Resits

Level 1

Resit examinations for Autumn Semester and Spring Semester modules will be held in the following August. Entry for these examinations is open only to students who cannot proceed to level 2 as a result of failure to satisfy level 1 requirements or who have failed a module at level 1 which is a pre-requisite either for a level 2 module that the student intends to take or is a core module at level 2.

Level 2

A student who fails any module or half module at level 2 may be permitted to resit on one or (subject to approval) more occasions. If the student subsequently passes, the maximum grade is a pass (40). Resits are normally available during August in all those modules that a student must pass to proceed to level 3 and in all those level 2 modules that are pre-requisites for level 3 core modules.

Level 3

A student who fails any module or half module at level 3 and who has not been recommended for the award of a degree may (subject to approval) resit on one occasion. If the student subsequently passes, the maximum grade is a pass (40).

In all cases, non-invigilated elements may be replaced in the resit examination at the discretion of the examiners by a specially set unseen paper or incorporated into the content and/or rubric of the resit paper.
