Important Note:
Electives are chosen by students
during an ‘add/drop’ period which
is open until shortly before the
start of term. Once the deadline
for add/drop has passed, no
changes can be made to the
selection of classes that students
have made. There is not a ‘taster
week’ for electives. If a student
does not complete a course once
it has started, they will fail that
course.
Assessment:
Although LBS do not operate an
attendance policy, students who
fail to attend 80% of classes may
expect not to pass their exams.
