Assessment entails three elements.
The course work on which continuous assessment is based includes work done individually and in groups, and may consist of combinations of tests, essays, practical reports and seminars. Candidates with credits from other universities may be given credit for equivalent courses at Rhodes University, and may be able to complete a degree in less than the minimum three years. Similarly, learners with credits from Rhodes University may be able to move to any other university in the country where they may be given credit for equivalent courses at that university. The programme is designed so that learners may proceed in a variety of different directions at the end of their first year. For example, some learners may change to the curricula for the BSc or BCom degrees.
