Timetables

Some modules within your programme may have a prerequisite or corequisite requirement to complete either before (prerequisite) you can proceed with another module or in conjunction (corequisite) with another module. It is important to take note of your programme’s prerequisite modules as you may not be able to proceed with a module in the following semester or year if you are not successful in the prerequisite for that module which will affect your registration and progression for your qualification.

THE DEFINITION OF A PREREQUISITE:

You may not enrol for a module without having successfully completed the related prerequisites. Prerequisites can also be between semesters or between years. Please ensure that you are registered for the correct modules and in the correct semester and/ or year. Your Student Advisor or a staff member from the Customer Relations Centre will assist you with this. Should you need to amend your registration to add or deregister from any modules, you need to complete an Amendment to Contract form with a staff member from the Customer Relations Centre. For more detailed information regarding programme prerequisites and corequisites, please refer to your Programme Fact Sheet on The IIE’s Varsity College website.

Timetables

Your timetables are uploaded onto the Student Portal at the start of the semester. Your timetable will list all the modules that you are registered for during the semester. • The timetable confirms the schedule of lectures you are to receive for each of the modules you are registered for, including the venue and lecturer. In addition your timetable will include venue and lecturer information. • Our face-to-face programmes are aimed at students wishing to dedicate themselves to full-time face-to-face studies for the duration of their qualification. This means that students are expected to be available for classes during the morning and/or afternoon throughout the academic year depending on how the timetable is structured. • Unfortunately, you are not able to select a morning or afternoon format to suit your personal circumstances. • We encourage you to take up part-time employment outside of class time, weekends and in the evenings, but you must prioritise your studies and we urge you not to commit to work schedules until after you have received your timetable and academic calendar. • While we strive to offer time efficient timetables (where classes are grouped together in the morning or the afternoon), we cannot guarantee that either format will necessarily be available for all programmes every semester. • You are required to attend classes unless you are studying a qualification offered by the Online Centre in which case face-to-face lecturers is not a requirement. • You may also be required to write assessments or submit coursework or assignments outside of normal class time. • If you are repeating a module/s from a previous year of study, please liaise with the

Customer Relations Centre to ensure that you have all the required timetables for modules across different years of study. Timetables are subject to change and it is therefore important that you refer to the most recent version which will be available on the student portal. Should you experience a clash between two modules on your timetable, please discuss this with the Customer Relations Centre immediately.

Programme Assessment Schedules (PAS)

Your Programme Assessment Schedule (PAS) can be accessed via the Student Portal at the start of the semester. This schedule will list all the formative and summative assessment dates for each module so that you can plan for and work towards your academic success. • This schedule will confirm all assessment dates (tests, assignments, exams, tasks and

Portfolio of Evidence (POE) deadlines, take home test, take home exam).
