RPL Application

There are two main application forms that you may need to complete if applying for RPL.

RPL Module Exemption application form – for TUS registered students only. This is the form to complete if you are applying for an exemption in a module/s based on prior formal learning. You can complete this form if you have accepted a place on a TUS Programme, if you have registered for the module and if you wish to be considered exempt from the module.

Please note: This form does not relate to using RPL to meet the admissions requirements of a programme. If you are a prospective student seeking admission to TUS and you do not meet the required admissions criteria you may apply to be admitted based on recognition of prior learning, including experiential learning and will need to complete the RPL application form below.

RPL application form (Portfolio of learning) – this is the form to fill out if you are applying for RPL (admission or advanced entry) based on your prior learning. If you are applying using a combination of formal, non-formal and informal learning you should complete this form. This is an opportunity for learners to reflect on their learning to show how this aligns with the programme modules learning outcomes.

Applicants who do not meet the academic entry requirements may be able to use RPL to support their application for admission to a TUS programme.

Applicants who wish to get academic advise on admission to a programme using RPL should contact the relevant Head of Department.

Module content is accessible through the relevant academic department

Along with submitting Employment and Education details you will be required to:

  • Review the course and details of the module (the learning outcomes) that you wish to gain an exemption for
  • Demonstrate the connection between your previous learning experience and the learning outcomes of the module
  • Map your prior learning to the learning outcomes of the module in a clear and logical manner and provide sound evidence
