Special permission
You can apply for special permission to study courses for a variety of reasons. These include:
- if you haven't taken the prerequisite or corequisite courses
- if you want to take a course that is restricted against another course because it is similar in content, meaning you can't study both of the courses
- if you are wanting to study courses offered at a different location to your other courses
- credit limits (for example, you want to take more than the amount of credits allowed at a particular level)
- if the course is not available in your qualification
- late enrolment.
Before you apply for special permission we recommend you contact our Academic Advice team
