Under the Block Credit Transfer scheme, the result of an application case may become a precedent. This means that the result will be applicable to another applicant if the latter uses the same qualification in his/her BCT claim towards the same programme.
You are advised to search the available precedents to check whether or not a precedent for the qualification already exists. If so, you may refer to the top-up list in that precedent when registering for courses.
If there is a study period indicated in the precedent, the available precedent is applicable only to that particular period of the qualification. If you hold the same qualification as in the precedent but with a different study period, the precedent will not apply to your case. Your application will be subject to a new assessment.
You may refer to precedents relating to the University’s Postgraduate Diplomas or Master’s degree programmes, which can be found on BCT Precedents for Postgraduate Diplomas and Master’s degree programmes.
