In September 2016 an amended version of the Deferral and Withdrawal Policy was published. The amended version of this policy is differentiated from the previous version by the addition of ‘2016/17’ in the title and the previous version has been re-designated as Deferral and Withdrawal Policy 2012/13 to 2015/16.
The changes detailed below will affect all students who start a module in or after August 2016 and decide part way through that they wish to take a break in their studies or to change their study plans. The Policy is designed to be used in conjunction with the 2016/17 Fee Rules and 2016/17 Assessment Banking Rules.
Please talk to your Student Support Team if you need any further information. You can find out how to contact them on Contact the OU.
