International Student Mobility image


The College is fully committed to and fully implements the ECTS grading system which enables the seamless transfer of student results between institutions. The equivalence table is reproduced below. Assessment for international students is normally conducted by written assignments, project work and the completion of reflective journals. Oral examinations may be prescribed where it is felt that this is the fairest way of assessing performance and provisions are also in place for written examinations. Assessment in most cases will be in English.
