Before making arrangements for accommodation, travel, employment or other commitments, please check your programme information, offer details and programme handbook for any programme-specific dates.
While the University makes every effort to ensure published information is accurate, dates may occasionally change to meet academic, regulatory or professional requirements. Where possible, affected students will be notified in advance of any significant changes.
