3.7.1 Deans, Responsible Academic Officers or Subject Coordinators as appropriate, shall ensure that by the end of the first teaching week in the subject, students are provided with a published subject outline for each subject in which they are enrolled.

3.7.2 If it becomes necessary after teaching has commenced for the University to change subject requirements and/or assessment procedures, the change shall:

(1) be reasonable in all the circumstances;

(2) occur after the Subject Coordinator has made a serious attempt to consult with all students enrolled in that subject;

(3) be confirmed in writing by the Subject Coordinator to all students enrolled in that subject.

3.7.3 If a student is unable to undertake particular prescribed subject requirements as a result of illness or other circumstances beyond the student's reasonable control, the student may apply to the relevant Faculty Board to vary particular subject requirements. The application must include details of the individual circumstances necessitating such a request and details of the proposed study which must be equivalent in standard and scope to the particular prescribed subject requirements. The application may include other supporting documentation.

3.7.4 Approval by the relevant Faculty Board of a variation to subject requirements for an individual student does not imply exemption from payment of any fees or charges, nor does it imply exemption from, or concessions relating to, assessment or examinations. Study thus approved will be subject to normal assessment grading.
