Is QMU right for you ? All you need to know before applying |
Single module applications
Some CPD courses are offered as single ( associate ) modules as part of the full degree course . If you wish to apply for a single module select ‘ Apply for this course ’ on the webpage for the full degree course . You will then have the opportunity to apply for an associate module and you can specify the module that you wish to study as part of your application .
For some short courses / single module applications you may not need to supply as much information as for full degree programmes . However , this will depend on the module .
Deferred entry
Applicants holding an offer for some courses may request to defer entry to the University for one year . If you wish to defer , you must contact the Admissions office , stating the reason for your request . Requests will be considered on an individual basis and may not be possible for some courses .

Credit accumulation
Students registered for a master ’ s degree may exit most courses with an award at postgraduate certificate or postgraduate diploma level . This applies mostly to courses designed on a modular basis and where progression is by credit accumulation . Where a postgraduate certificate has not been validated in a certain subject , the award will be a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education .
Criminal convictions
All offer holders are asked to disclose unspent criminal convictions at the point when they accept their offer to help safeguard the welfare of our students . Applicants for certain courses of study must declare all criminal convictions at the point of application , and in these cases the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 does not apply .
Applicants for some courses will be required to provide a satisfactory criminal records check from the Disclosure Scotland Protecting Vulnerable Groups ( PVG ) Scheme . Applicants who have lived outside the UK will also be required to provide the Admissions Office with a satisfactory police check from their home country .
