CHECK HOW MANY CREDITS/MODULES YOU NEED FOR YOUR STAGE:
The normal credit load for each stage of an Undergraduate programme is 60 credits (12 modules). Some programmes may vary.

• To see how many credits you need for each stage of your programme go to the Course Search (http://www.ucd.ie/students/course_search.htm) and click on the Undergraduate tab to find your programme.
• You will be able to see how many programme credits and how many elective credits (if that applies) you need to have as well as a list of the Core and Option modules on offer.

CHECK HOW MANY CREDITS YOU CURRENTLY HAVE FOR YOUR STAGE:

• You can do this through your SIS Web by looking at your Semester Breakdown, checking your Credit Information and reading your Credit Statement.
• Students should not normally be registered to more than 70 credits over the two semesters (some programmes may allow more than this).
• Click here for a guide to checking your credits.

CHECK IF YOU NEED TO PAY FOR ANY EXTRA CREDIT YOU ARE TAKING:

• Free Fees will cover you for the minimum amount of credits that you need to attempt and pass for your degree (normally 60 credits per year).
• Any additional credits taken in excess of this limit i.e. extra Elective modules, extra Option modules, Substituted modules, Resits or Repeats must be paid for in full by the student.
• For more information go here.

CHECK FOR ADVICE:

• Information on Repeat/Resit modules can be found here.
• For academic advice on your workload speak to your Programme Office.
• For help with module registration check out the online guides or contact the Student Desk.

CHECK WHEN YOU NEED TO COMPLETE MODULE REGISTRATION:
Module registration closes at 5.00pm on Friday, 21 September 2012. Any Semester 1 modules dropped after that date may be subject to fees. You will be given a chance to review your Semester 2 Option and Elective modules in early January 2013.
