	British undergraduate degree classification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British undergraduate degree classification system is a grading scheme for undergraduate degrees (bachelor's degrees and some master's degrees) in the United Kingdom.
		A candidate who is unable to take his or her exams because of illness can sometimes be awarded an aegrotat degree; this is an honours degree without classification, awarded on the understanding that had the candidate not been unwell, he or she would have passed.
		A candidate for a postgraduate master's degree is usually required to have at least a 2:2 degree, although candidates with 2:1s are in a considerably stronger position to gain a place on a postgraduate course and to gain funding.

	Undergraduate degree - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An undergraduate degree (sometimes called a first degree or simply a degree) is the most common and primary academic degree available and is normally studied at a higher education institution, such as a university.
		By far the most common type of undergraduate degree is the bachelor's degree, which typically takes three or four years to complete.
		Once they have graduated, undergraduate degrees allow their holders to get a better job than they would otherwise be able to get or continue into postgraduate education.

		The main difference is that students completing such degree programmes receive awards of a similar standard to those in the collaborating university or university college, and that the UK takes care to underpin the same threshold standards of its degree across all institutions.
		Students’ performance in their degree examinations and assessments is measured by an Honours Classification system (first class, upper and lower second class, third class, pass, ie non-Honours), but institutions are increasingly providing transcripts that show performance in individual final papers or modules and other assessment tasks.
		This scheme provides for degrees with similar content to be compared on a like-for-like basis and ensures that a degree of a given content/disciplinary mix with a particular class is of broadly the same level of intellectual challenge wherever the student has studied or been examined.
