Supplementary criteria for progression from the first to the second year of the MSc Finance (part-time)
To be eligible to proceed into the second year, candidates must attain at least a Pass grade in the two compulsory courses: FM422E and FM423E. If a candidate fails (but does not 'Bad Fail') one compulsory course, the Board may exceptionally allow progression to the second year. Exceptional progression will be at the sole discretion of the Board. If a candidate fails both of these compulsory courses they will not be allowed to progress to year two. If a candidate has a 'Bad Fail' in one or both courses they will not be allowed to progress to year two.
A student shall normally be entitled to re-sit any failed courses only (on one occasion) and at the next normal opportunity according to the . . The School may consider an application for repeat tuition in any failed courses from a student. Results obtained at re-sit shall bear their normal value.
