Timetable Clashes: Please note that mandatory courses will not clash on your timetable. Whilst the

University aims to accommodate a full range of optional/elective courses, it may not be possible for the timetable to provide all choice combinations.

Timetables will be available two weeks prior to the start of Semester and you are advised to check your timetable at this time. In the unlikely event that you have selected courses which result in a timetable clash, you should seek advice from your Academic School as to the availability of alternative courses.

Please be aware that your optional/elective courses may be subject to change before the start of Semester.

Maximum Limit Exceeded for a Course: We try to offer everyone the possibility to study the

optional/elective course they request. However, in certain courses, we are required to limit the numbers participating. In the event that you have selected a course which is over-subscribed, you will be contacted by your Academic School and advised accordingly.

Change of Course Selection: Providing that you have not completed the online enrolment process, you will

be able to update your selection of courses. If however, you decide to change courses following the completion of this procedure, you will be required to complete a ‘Change of Course’ form by the end of Week 3 of each Semester: http://www.hw.ac.uk/registry/resources/changeofcourseform.pdf Please be aware that this form requires to be approved by your Academic School and decisions may not be made until the start of the Academic Year.
