英国纽卡斯尔大学最新延期政策
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic we understand that some students may be considering deferring their studies to the 2021 academic year. In some instances, we have also communicated to students that their course is no longer running for 2020 and have therefore presented them with the option to defer.
Below you can find a summary of the deadlines that will apply to students who defer their offer for our postgraduate taught programmes. You will notice that we have implemented some new deadlines including students accepting their offer and meeting conditions by a certain date. This will help us to determine which students are likely to take up their place in 2021 and manage course demand.
