Upgrades - Postgraduate Coursework Programs
Postgraduate students can apply to upgrade from their current award course to a higher level within an embedded sequence if they satisfy the requirements of the Faculty. An example is when a student wishes to upgrade their award course from a Graduate Certificate in Commerce to a Graduate Diploma or Masters of Commerce or from a Graduate Diploma in Economics to a Masters of Economics.
Upgrades can only be assessed once a student has attempted at least four units of study and has achieved a minimum Credit (65%) average. If a student has completed more than four units of study, their average will be calculated across all units completed. Fail grades are included when calculating the average.
Students who have achieved a Credit average (65+) overall are not guaranteed a place in the higher level program. Upgrades are competitive and subject to places available.
The closing date for applications to transfer is 8 January 2010. No late applications will be accepted after this date.
