Continuing undergraduates will be able to select optional units for the 2013/14 academic year on-line between Wednesday 17 April 2013 and 5pm on Wednesday 1 May 2013 (prior to the start of the Semester 2 exams). Please see Student-Unit Enrolment (SUE) on-line: Choosing units for next academic year for details of on-line unit selection for 2013/14. The following information has been prepared to help you with the process of chosing your units online:
- Choosing units via SAMIS on the Web - guide for continuing undergraduate students

Once on-line unit selection has closed you may only change your optional units in exceptional circumstances (see 'Changing and choosing options' (pdf) for further details). If you meet the criteria for changing your options you must submit a change of units form to your department by the Wednesday of the first week of the relevant semester. Any changes to optional units must be made on the basis of the published timetable.
