Please be assured that Ikon is actively working on options to support affected students wherever possible.
We are pleased to announce that Ikon is now in a position to support cross-institutional study for international students. This will allow eligible students to apply for approval to undertake subjects at another institution and have them credited towards their course at Ikon.
Who is eligible?
- Timing: The subject must start at least four (4) weeks after you apply.
- Ikon subjects: You can’t apply to replace a subject you’re currently enrolled in, or have already completed, at Ikon.
- Placements: Subjects involving professional placement or work-integrated learning are generally not eligible for credit.*
- Credit limit: As cross-institutional study is a form of recognition of prior learning, the credit transferred from the subjects in this application will be counted towards the 50% credit limit of your course.*
- Prerequisites: You must meet the prerequisites for the Ikon equivalent.
- Subject Availability: A subject required for your course progression or completion is not offered at Ikon but is available at another institution.
- Special Circumstances: You are unable, for good reason, to complete a corresponding subject at Ikon.
- Visa Expiry & Completion: You can only apply if your student visa will expire before your expected course completion date, and cross-institutional study would help you finish within your visa period.
- Visa Conditions: Cross-institutional study must not breach your student visa conditions. We will check this as part of your application.
*Some courses have specific rules; please see your course’s section in the form for details.
We understand this is a difficult and uncertain time. Please know that supporting our students remains a priority, and we are committed to exploring every reasonable option available to us.
We would ask that students continue to maintain behavior standards in accordance with the student code of conduct.
