Modules: how and when to register

CLIE language module registration for 2024-2025 (MFL, EAP, BSL) will open from 08 April 2024 via Module Selection on Portico

UCL continuing students

If you are interested in taking a CLIE language module in 2024-2025 then you should apply on Portico for the most appropriate CLIE language module, using information in the UCL module catalogue, the CLIE Language Modules 2023-2024 module handbook and the CLIE Language Modules syllabi.

Module selections on Portico will be open from 08 April 2024 until 17 May 2024. See UCL student module selection information for more information.

You also need to complete a CLIE online application form, which will be live from 20 May 2024. We will contact you when the application form goes live, if you have selected a language module on portico. 

If you studied a language as a module at the CLIE in 2023-2024 and will continue with the same language in 2024-2025: provided you are not expecting to study the language over the summer then you will be allocated to the next language level up 15/30 credit module. If this is at CLIE language level 7 then the appropriate module options will be shown to you. Your module selection will then be approved on Portico (after amending if necessary).

If you did not study the language as a module at the CLIE in 2023-2024, or if you studied the language over the summer: you will need to have an online interview with a CLIE language tutor to determine the most appropriate module. You will select a date/time for your interview when you complete the CLIE online application form. Interviews take place (on Microsoft Teams), from early-June 2024 to mid-July 2024 and then again from 9 September 2024. Your module selection will then be approved on Portico (after we have amended the module if it is incorrect).

In order to have your CLIE language module approved by the CLIE on Portico then you must have completed the CLIE online application form.

Provided you have the module selected on Portico and you complete the CLIE online application form (and have an interview if required) before 27 September 2024 then you will almost certainly be able to take a CLIE language module; we offer most languages at seven levels and timetabling conflicts that are unresolvable are very rare.

For any questions please contact the CLIE language modules office.

 

UCL new students

Portico module selection for new UCL students opens on Monday 9 September 2024. See UCL new student module selection information for more information.

If you are interested in taking a CLIE language module in 2024-2025 then you should apply on Portico for the most appropriate CLIE language module, using information in the UCL module catalogue, the CLIE Language Modules 2023-2024 module handbook and the CLIE Language Modules syllabi.

You also need to complete a CLIE online application form; if you know you are permitted to take a CLIE language module then you can complete this first, otherwise you can do this after you have selected the most appropriate CLIE language module on Portico. 

You will need to have an online interview with a CLIE language tutor to determine the most appropriate module (even if you have never studied the language before/are a complete beginner). You will select a date/time for your interview when you complete the CLIE online application form. Interviews will take place (on Microsoft Teams) from 09 September 2024. Your module selection will then be approved on Portico (after we have amended the module if it is incorrect).

Provided you have the module selected on Portico and you complete the CLIE online application form (and have an interview if required) before 27 September 2024 then you will almost certainly be able to take a CLIE language module; we offer most languages at seven levels and timetabling conflicts that are unresolvable are very rare.

Class times and the online timetable

Classes are scheduled around the availability of the students registered for each module, using information on the UCL Online Timetable. We will start scheduling classes in August 2024 once the main module registration period for continuing students has finished. 

The schedule will be provisional and there may be changes to some groups, and new groups may be created; classes should be confirmed by 23 September 2024 or shortly thereafter.

You may need to change group in Term 2 if there is a clash, and when necessary CLIE language classes change time in Term 2 to accommodate different student schedules - this is normally done in November.

Classes start in the week beginning Monday 07 October 2024 (UCL week 7).

Intercollegiate students

Module registration/approvals for intercollegiate students will take place from 02 September 2024. Please follow the information above for UCL new students.
