Honours Options Choice
HISTORY
Background
• NOT first-come first-served. Allocation on
courses which are oversubscribed is random,
but will comply with DPTs.
You’ll be sent a link by email.
When you follow that link, you’ll
need to log into EASE.
In most cases, the form will
know:
•Who you are
•Which degree you are on
•Which year you are going into
If your degree is wrong, please
contact the Student Support
Office and let them know!
Please fill in your contact details.
Most likely we will contact you via
your University email address,
so please check it regularly.
VERY IMPORTANT
If you fail to provide reserve
choices and you aren’t allocated
your first choice, we will have no
choice but to allocate you
randomly to another course!
You will have to tick the box to say
you understand this message
before you can proceed.
If you don’t provide a full set of reserves, this
does NOT increase your likelihood of getting
your first choice!!
If you are planning a
year abroad (noncompulsory), fill in this
part of the form.
Wherever possible, fill in
your choices too, just incase your year abroad
falls through.
Read ALL instructions
carefully!!! The form will
not check that your
options are suitable for
your degree.
Each degree will have a
set of notes.
They give you more
details about what courses
you can pick for your
degree. They also tell you
where to apply for courses
in Classics and/or
Archaeology if relevant.
Read them thoroughly.
Your degree might
require you to take
courses from a
particular set of courses.
Clicking on the link will
show you a list of those
courses.
Your form might look a bit
different from this but
generally you’ll have a
place to fill in Semester 1,
Semester 2 and full year
courses (where relevant).
Information about the
courses is available by
clicking on this link. This
includes the latest year’s
handbooks and this year’s
description, timetable and
assessment details.
It also gives information about how many
students have currently selected this course.
Remember that classes have limited sizes!
This information will allow you to see how
likely it is that you will get a particular course.
We cannot guarantee you’ll get
your first choice (although we
will do what we can!) so
please ensure you provide 3
reserve choices wherever
possible!
We also strongly recommend
that you select AT LEAST ONE
UNDERSUBSCRIBED COURSE
as a first or reserve choice.
Press the Accept information
button when you are done.
You should get a summary
screen which gives you the
options you have picked.
Print it out or copy it into a Word
document and save it
somewhere safe.
You can resubmit the form as often as
you like before the deadline!
All of the pages in the form have a
‘Help & Assistance’ box which
includes information on how to get
technical help (please follow the
instructions carefully) and also gives
another link to the course information.
Queries about your degree structure
should be discussed with your Personal
Tutor OR the Student Support Office!
You can find out more about the
structure of your degree in the DRPS.
