To guide you when thinking about your second and final year programme, there are two simple University rules that must be followed:
- You can have no more than 180 Level 1 credits overall in your three years (four if spending a year abroad)
- You must have at least 90 Level 3 credits overall, but these can be gained in any academic year
There are no rules about the number of Level 2 credits.
Taking Level 1 credits in a final year is very unusual and approval is required from the FCH Director. It is only approved if there is good academic justification.
