*A student can be off-books in two ways

1. Off-books: A student takes a year out and returns in the next academic year to continue their studies. Students must apply to the Senior Lecturer for permission to go off-books. Permission is normally only granted to students in good standing, ie already entitled to join the class above on their return to College.
2. Off-books exams only: A student does not attend lectures or classes etc but is required to take examinations during the annual examination period. This is usually done in a repeat year where a student has applied to, and been granted permission by, the Senior Lecturer to take this course of action.
