Delivery and Changes

After a student has accepted a place at MIUC, MIUC will ensure early notification of any changes is made and will try to minimise their impact, offering suitable alternative arrangements or forms of compensation where it believes there is a fair case to do so. Offers of a place to study at the University will provide up-to-date information on courses.
