Changing tutorials
Am I eligible to change tutorials?
You are only eligible if you meet the following criteria:
- The times of my core units clash
- I have a registered disability as documented by an Academic Integration Plan
- I am responsible for the care of another person
Note: Work commitments are not considered an extenuating circumstance if submitting under the ‘core units clash’ criterion.
These criteria are strict and supporting documents must be supplied as noted on the form. All requests will be assessed by staff within the School that owns the unit.
What if the tutorial I want to register in is full?
You will need to select another tutorial time. If all of the tutorials in the unit are full you may need to change your enrolment. If you must complete the unit for your course, contact the Unit Coordinator for advice. Some tutorial times are more popular than others so you may not always get your first choice.
Extenuating circumstances prevent me from registering in an available tutorial time.
You may be eligible to change your tutorial time by appealing to the school via a Change of Tutorial Form. To be considered you must already be registered in a tutorial and you will need to provide evidence to support your extenuating circumstances
How do I request to change tutorials, if I’m eligible?
You will need to complete a Change of tutorial form, unless your unit is from the School of Law. You will need to complete this form either electronically or in hard copy and provide supporting documentation.
