What should I do now if I wish to apply?
You should first check with us to determine when your module choice/preference is being offered for delivery.
Core modules are generally available each semester, as is APL/APEL, however optional modules and the Masters stage may only be offered once during an academic session.
A copy of the 2009/2010 schedule, which includes information about module fees, is available via the undernoted link.
All modules are delivered subject to attracting a viable cohort to ensure a meaningful, quality learning experience and as such from time to time we may have to adjust the delivery schedule accordingly.
Note: The application deadline associated with Trimester 1 (September 2009) was 0900am on Monday 10 August, therefore we are no longer able to accept applications for Trimester 1.
Application to join the programme in Trimester 2 (February 2010) must be made by 0900am on Monday 7 December 2009 to facilitate full enrolment (please refer to additional notes supplied below in this respect).
