Add/Drop Arrangement ADD Enrollment after the first class will not be accepted. DROP We expect that all enrolled students are fully committed to the Course, thus no withdrawal is expected from now. However, if there are any extenuating circumstances which make it impossible for you to continue with the Course, please speak to the instructor and keep the School informed by email at senglaw@ust.hk

What do students receive upon course completion? What is issued to students upon completion of the course? Upon completion of the Contract Law Course, the University of Exeter will issue a transcript to each enrolled student. No HKUST transcript will be issued as it is not an HKUST course. The Contract Law Course will not appear on the HKUST transcript either. Title of Course and credits awarded (30 CATS) will be specified on transcript. 

Credit Transfer How does the credit transfer work? The Course can be transferred to HKUST as equivalent to ENGG2201. The number of credits to be transferred depends on the number of credits designated to ENGG2201, i.e. six (6) HKUST credits.  Mark awarded to students for the Course will not be transferred to HKUST, thus there is no impact on students’ CGA at HKUST. For engineering programs – the Course does not map into any degree requirement in the engineering programs except the 120-credit requirement for all UG programs at HKUST. For non-engineering programs and minor programs – please consult the Department administering the major/minor program concerned.

What next? What actions are required of you from now? Your registration details will be passed to U of Exeter for entry into their system within this week.
