Transfer

Does anybody know if you can transfer to another course even another department( such as science to management) after one semester? Is RH flexible or strict?

Here's the procedure. It will depend on the department you want to transfer to.

All I can say is that a guy I knew tried to transfer from Computer Science to Management during second week of the year but Management rejected. Originally he couldn't get into Business Studies so he applied to Computer Science instead thinking the transfer would be piece of cake. He left university straight after that.

I bet it's going to be impossible after first semester because you'll have missed out half of the year's course.

Usually not anywhere after one semester: either in the first two weeks or so, if you meet the criteria for acceptance and there are places, and they accept you, or at the end of the first academic year, once you've passed all your first year modules, if they are convinced by your story about why you want to swap. You'll probably, for the swap you've asked about, then need to repeat your first year because the programmes are so different. Best to ring the admissions' office direct, though, and ask (not the department itself, because at the moment, this is something the central team will need to deal with)

So do you know the reason why management rejected ?

Hi,

It is highly unlikely you will be able to transfer from one department to another, especially after one semester. After one semester you will have missed out on the course's compulsory modules which would mean you would not pass the year. If a transfer is possible, it is more likely to happen during the first two weeks of term when you will not have progressed too far into the course, and it would be simpler to do an internal transfer within the same department.

If you had a very strong case on transferring after one semester, it is possible you would be asked to do an interruption which means you would take a gap and start the new course in the next academic year.

What is your current course and the new one you would want to transfer into?

My current course is mathematics and I want to transfer to Economics. Is it possible to apply transfer after 1month of the first term if I can catch up the course during the first month？
