If students wish to take a paper for no particular qualification, they may enrol for a Certificate of Proficiency (COP). Provided a COP paper was taken under the same conditions and with the same prerequisites as are required for a particular qualification, it may later be credited to that qualification. Papers which students have to take as prerequisites for diplomas should be taken as COPS. If they are enrolling in these papers as corequisites they should enrol in the diploma and COP concurrently. Papers for credit to another university must be taken as COPs.
