How do I defer a module?

Deferment of a module/ course will only be considered if a written notice is submitted at least 14 working days prior to module/ course commencement. Deferment will only be approved after payment of outstanding fees (if any) has been made.

Approval for deferment is at the sole discretion of the School. The School’s decision is final.

Deferment is generally not encouraged unless on compassionate grounds and approval granted at the sole discretion of the School.

Deferment request submitted after course commencement will not be entertained.
