On the recommendation of the head of the department, the Arts faculty board may admit to masters candidature an applicant who has gained tertiary qualifications in the form of either a honours degree in a relevant discipline or a pass degree with credit level grades or better in at least the third part of a major sequence relevant to the course applied for, or who has qualifications which the faculty board deems to be equivalent.
An applicant with a honours degree with a grade of H2A or H1, or a qualification deemed to be equivalent, may be admitted to either part I or part II of the degree by coursework or by research (thesis).
An applicant with a honours degree with a grade of H2B, or a qualification deemed to be equivalent, may be admitted to either part I or part II of the degree by coursework.
An applicant without an honours degree or its equivalent can only be admitted to part I of the degree by coursework.
On the recommendation of the head, an applicant who has qualified with an approved graduate diploma (or its equivalent) in a relevant discipline with credit level grades or better may be admitted to part II of the degree by coursework or by coursework and research (thesis).
The phrase `qualification deemed to be equivalent' means that the head of the department may recommend to the faculty board that an applicant with a tertiary degree and, say, at least five years of relevant full time employment or similar experience be admitted to candidature at a level appropriate to that qualification.
