Understanding credit points
A two-year program typically consists of 200 credit points.
A standard full-time study load is four subjects per semester, across two semesters per year (eight subjects per year), which equals 100 credit points per year.
Most subjects are worth 12.5 credit points*.
* Some subjects carry a heavier workload and may be worth more points.
