Does this affect me?

Are you an IUM student with a subject outstanding from an old curriculum qualification that has been discontinued?
If yes – this is important information and your last chance to complete that qualification
Not sure? – you must check your academic records and get advice at registration.

What must I do?

It depends on the level, or levels, that you have a subject, or subjects, outstanding For all students affected you must bring your academic records with you to registration and complete a form for equivalent subjects.

 Higher Certificate
 Honours degree year 1
 Honours degree year 2

You must register for and successfully complete an equivalent subject from the new curriculum in 2019. Details of which subjects are equivalent are available at any IUM campus.

 Higher Diploma

Two subjects outstanding you must register for and successfully complete three equivalent subjects. Details of which subjects are equivalent are available at any IUM campus. You must bring your academic records with you to registration and complete a form for equivalent subjects.
