    I am a first year in UL and I am wondering if I would be able to change courses , I know its a bit late for this but I am not liking my course anymore. Would it be possible to change from 1st Year Computer Games Development and then start 2nd Year in Applied Physics?

    Thank you.

    You'll have to get an internal transfer form(available in the SAA), have a talk with them while you are there. You'll need 4 signitures from what I can remember, the two deans and two course heads(I could be wrong). Unless you pass all your exams and there are overlapping modules I doubt you'll be able to transfer into 2nd year of the course. Also you must have had enough points from the LC to the new course you are transferring to.
    Think the internal transfer happens around week 7/8 when meeting are held(again this is going back 4 years so not 100%). Best bet is to go in and talk to SAA or ask your course head. Good luck

    There are no overlapping modules( in first year anyway) so it'd be very hard to go straight into second year without having prior knowledge of what you're doing.
