B.Sc. in Economics (Level I)
Introduction
Students interested in pursuing a degree in Economics can do Level 1 of their programme by distance. A student is allowed a maximum of four years to complete Level 1. Generally, students who complete the B.Sc. Level 1 by distance will have gained the 30 credits they need to be admitted into Level 2. However, it must be noted that for these degree options not all the Level 1 courses required are offered at a distance and students will have to take them when they enter Level 2 of their programme.Distance students who wish to take the above options must apply for a transfer to a campus to complete Levels 2 and 3. A transfer request form must be completed between February and March of the year in which the student will have attained 30 credits at Level 1. Please note that completion of the Level 1 courses does not guarantee acceptance into the face-to-face programme that the student is pursuing. Transfer to a programme is subject to the decision of the relevant Faculty Board and Entrance Committee.
