A full-time year is equivalent to 120 CATs for students on an Undergraduate course. To achieve an undergraduate award a student must accumulate a particular number of CATs at Level 4, 5 or 6 as illustrated below: Bachelors Degree without Honours: 300 CATs Bachelors Degree with Honours: 360 CATs (or 480 with year-long placement)
