DO NOT SELECT YOUR MODULES UNTIL SCHOOL ENROLMENT ON 28 SEPTEMBER
There are different regulations for the different degrees, but most first year BA students are required to take three subjects, with each subject worth 40 credits. These will be your Single Honours subject and two additional subjects or your two Joint Honours subjects and one additional subject. BA students may not choose separate, free-standing, individual modules. For BScEcon degrees, you still take 120 credits but by choosing modules.
You can’t change your degree programme without the prior permission of the school(s) involved.
