Post Work Attachment (WA)

The grades for the WA are Pass with Distinction, Pass and Fail, based on the criteria given in WA Assessment. Students who self-sourced their WA will be given additional credit in the WA Assessment, which may or may not affect their overall WA grade.

Students who had secured and accepted a Priority Offer or Graduate Job Offer will be awarded a "Pass", subject to submission of documents related to WA placement. To aim for a Pass with  Distinction, these students may continue with the WA Assessment Centre. 

Students can refer to the "WA Guidelines for Students" under 'Shared Documents', via the InPlace@SUSS, to find out how they will be assessed for their WA.
