Edinburgh College of Art
The standard dates for the start and end of each semester apply to students and programmes in Edinburgh College of Art. However, for some programmes, patterns of teaching contact, studio time and assessment within semesters one and two will differ from the normal pattern in the University. For example, some programmes will not have examinations and therefore and consolidation and examination time may be allocated to studio work and preparation of degree shows. Students should consult programme handbooks for further information.
Non Matriculated Students
Non-matriculated students may be admitted to lecture
classes in courses at level 7 or 8 only at the discretion of the Head
of the School concerned. They will be required to pay the appropriate
single Class Fee(s).
Such attendance does not qualify for graduation; or entitle
a student to attend tutorials, laboratory practical sessions or similar;
or entitle a student to a class certificate or to submit or have marked
any assessments; or confer any University privilege. This category
is designed in the main to permit persons normally resident in or near
Edinburgh to attend lecture classes without the expectation of gaining
any University qualification. It is not intended for anyone who
is studying for a qualification of another institution whether in this
country or abroad.
