4.11.1 Year One – Requirements to enter Year Two

1. Students will pass year one if they satisfy both of the following conditions in their year one module assessments:

(i) passes at 40% or more in 120 credits’ worth of modules

and

(ii) Students must pass all components of all modules. Students must resit all failed assessments to pass overall.

2. Year one students are normally allowed up to THREE resit opportunities. Resit marks will be capped at 40%. Students will be required to take the first resit opportunity for all assessments in the summer resit assessment period in August. The second resit opportunity for any failed modules must take place during the following session, in the semester the module is being, or had previously, been taught. However, students must have passed at least 60 credits to be allowed to take assessments in August; if they have fewer than 60 passed credits they will be required to repeat their first year. Uncapped resit opportunities (M indicator) may be made available by Examination Boards where it is accepted that performance was affected by special circumstances.
