Deferral of the Study
2023-06-02
-
- The student should submit a request for study deferral to the Admission and Registration Department during the add/drop period at the beginning of the semester, after paying the application fees.
- After completing one semester of study, and for reasons deemed acceptable by the Admission and Registration Department, the student may defer their studies for a period not exceeding two years, whether continuously or intermittently. The faculty dean should be informed of the deferment.
- Requests for deferment submitted during the addition/add period may be considered for compelling and acceptable reasons by the University Council.
- The period of deferment is not counted towards the maximum duration allowed for obtaining the undergraduate degree.
- The student is not required to pay tuition fees during the deferment period. They are not allowed to withdraw the fees already paid prior to the deferment request. After approval of the deferment, the fees are carried forward until the student resumes their studies. The student is obligated to pay any difference in fees in case of an increase during the deferment period.
- If the deferment is not granted according to the aforementioned conditions, and the student is absent from studies for a maximum of four semesters without paying the tuition fees within the specified deadlines, their enrollment is considered void unless an acceptable excuse is provided and accepted by the University Council. If the excuse is accepted, the required fees for the period of absence must be paid.
