Note 1 - Late Addition of Units

A student may add a unit to an existing enrolment after the periods noted in Regulation 4.3.1 only if – (a) authorised by the Lecturer-in-Charge and approved by the Course Coordinator, in order to correct an error in enrolment identified and corrected within 30 days after the census date; or (b) approved by the Dean, where the addition is sought more than 30 days after the census date and prior to the commencement of the central examination period in the next standard study period. The Dean would normally determine the matter on the recommendation of the Course Coordinator after consultation with the Lecturer-in-Charge, and only on the basis of exceptional circumstances which would have precluded the student from acting within the prescribed period; any such late change may incur liability for additional fees and charges. (c) Where teaching commences on a date other than the nominated Study Period Date or the Nominal Date for Classes to Commence then the last date to add a unit in a non-standard study period is the day before classes actually commence.
