Course exemptions have their own grade conditions
The college says graduates with a grade of B or higher in the applicable courses may be eligible for SCMP module and workshop exemptions. Remaining modules and workshops, an In-Residence Week and the final examination still apply. That pathway does not automatically confer the designation or price its remaining requirements within the diploma tuition.

Published 2026-27 estimates are a planning reference. They are not a price guarantee for a later intake.

Sources checked 29 October 2026. The tuition dataset identifies 2026-27. The intake resource has conflicting freshness metadata, so its observed labels require confirmation before use as current availability. Individual admission, equivalency and immigration decisions remain with the relevant institution or authority.
