The University’s Undergraduate Rules of Assessment
apply to all students in all disciplines across the University. Rules
of Assessment are used to determine whether a student can progress
from one year of study to the next, what is required to qualify for an
award and how a degree classification is arrived at in the final year
of study.
For some programmes there are approved variations to
the rules. You should check Appendix A below to see if there
are any variations that apply to your course. You can view the Programme
Specification for your course and stage of study when you log onto
myEssex, or via
eNROL (module enrolment)
when it is open.
The Rules of Assessment on this
page are applicable to students in the second or final year of a three year
degree course in 2012/13, and students in the second stage
of a Four year course.
Undergraduate Rules of Assessment starting 2011-2012:
Students undertaking an Integrated Masters
award will be regarded as undergraduate until they have completed
the undergraduate part of the course. The rules can be found from
the link above.
