Third-Time Repeat Guidelines

If you wish to enrol in the same course for a third time, you must apply for permission.

You can enrol in a course for a second time through Student Services Online without special approval.

Important notes

  • You must pay normal course fees when repeating a course.
  • Passing a course on a second or third attempt does not remove any previous fail or DNS grade.
  • You cannot re-enrol in a course you have already passed, except in exceptional circumstances (e.g., Certificate of Proficiency, and the course cannot count toward any other programme).
  • Apply at least two weeks before the semester begins; late applications may not be processed in time.
  • Approval is not guaranteed—provide detailed reasons to support your application.
  • If approved, your enrolment may be limited to:
    45 points in that semester, or
    15 points for Summer School.

An interview with the Faculty is required after submitting your application. You will be contacted to arrange this.

Application process

  • Complete the Third-Time Repeat Application Form.
  • Your form will be sent to the Faculty of Law for review.
  • You will be contacted for an interview.
  • The Associate Dean (Academic Programmes) will consider your application.
  • You will be notified of the decision by email.
