However, students who elect to complete the research paper in second year will still be required to complete a writing assignment in third year. Other than these requirements, no upper year courses are mandatory. Students in the College of Law may be permitted to take 6 credit units given by another College, during either second or third year, for credit in the College of Law. Applications are assessed from the standpoint of the course's relevance to the law program or the student's career goals. Students who are selected by the National Selection Committee and who successfully complete the program will receive 3 credit units to be applied, at the option of the student, in either term of the following academic year.
Examination is the normal method of assessment although certain courses require a substantial paper.
Where grades are assigned by examination, a portion of those grades may be allocated by alternate modes of assessment. For complete details on promotion, consult the College Regulations on Examinations available in the college office.
