Curriculum Forms

Note that not all programmes require you to fill out the fillable PDF version of the registration form; some programmes (BSW, PPE, postgrad programmes, first year of BAFA and BA T&DP) require you to register via programme enrolment, selecting your courses within Peoplesoft. Students in those programmes will only need the forms if their curriculum is complicated enough that they cannot find a combination Peoplesoft will accept, and they need to move to a service request.

For students whose programme does require them to submit a completed form, forms can be found as below:

• General BA and BSocSci degree (both mainstream and extended): registration forms can be found in the Resources section of the Humanities 2022 Vula site, in the 2023 Registration Material folder. Please make sure you read this announcement and the curriculum advice info below in this notice before proceeding with your registration.
• BSW, PPE, F&MP: registration forms can be found in the Resources section of the Humanities 2022 Vula site, in the 2023 Registration Material folder.
• Performing/Creative Arts degrees: please consult your relevant department's Vula site.

Curriculum Advice

Curriculum advice is a vital part of the registration process wherein students consult trained academic staff to plan their curriculum for the year ahead. Obtaining curriculum advice differs according to what level of studies you are undertaking; please see the below information relevant to your studies.
