† If the dissertation is taken in Celtic, a 20-credit unit towards the dissertation will be taken in third year, and a 20-credit completion unit in fourth year.  Students opting for a Celtic dissertation will therefore be required to take a 20-credit unit towards their dissertation in third year together with option courses in Celtic totalling 40 credits, followed by a 20-credit completion unit in fourth year together with honours options in Celtic totalling 60 credits.
‡ Entry to year 3 normally requires a pass at 50% or above at the first attempt in English Language 2 and in either Gaelic 2A or Gaelic 2B (for Modern honours route) or Celtic Literature 2A and Celtic Literature 2B (for Medieval honours route).
