Verify the exact programme and session
Check the awarding university, the exact degree name and recognition for the applicable academic session through the relevant official regulatory sources. Recognition of an institution does not mean every programme or delivery format is automatically covered.
Make the weekly schedule realistic
Estimate time for lectures, reading, assignments and examination preparation. Ask whether live sessions are mandatory and whether recordings are available. Add study blocks to your calendar before committing to a course.
Understand assessment and support
Ask how exams are administered, what equipment is required and how academic support works. Check the process for missed assessments, extensions, re-exams and accessibility support.
Compare total value
Compare full programme fees, specialisations, practical projects and support services. Avoid treating placement assistance as a guaranteed job. Choose a programme that fills a specific skill or qualification gap.
