The main types of concurrent enrolment are - Enrolment in a unit at another tertiary institution to count for credit towards a Macquarie bachelor degree. Enrolment in two bachelor degree programs at Macquarie, and Enrolment in a degree or diploma course at Macquarie and another such course at Macquarie or another tertiary institution. Since 1 January 1997 the Academic Program Committee has maintained the Supplementary Schedule of units offered by other institutions which are integral to the Macquarie program. The Supplementary Schedule is held at the Undergraduate Student Centre and a pink application form is also available for students who require Division approval for their program of study.
Students are free to do units at other institutions under the provisions of advanced standing.
In such cases the unit will not appear on the student s Macquarie University academic record. Units undertaken at other tertiary institutions may not count towards the requirement of 18 credit points at 300 level or above or towards an approved coherent study. Students wishing to undertake units at another institution should be directed to the Undergraduate Student Centre to collect a lilac information sheet and an application form. Except for seeking advice about preclusions, the student does not need to obtain any approval from the Division. However the student is strongly advised to collect the lilac information sheet from the Student Centre because certain conditions apply to the granting of advanced standing.
