Conditional Probation Admission

Conditional / Probation Admission

The duration for conditional admission is up to one long semester, during which the student must sign a declaration stating that they will provide the missing documents. A hold will be placed on the student’s account, and they will be dismissed from the program unless they meet the admission conditions. The student can submit the missing documents at any time during the permitted period. Once the student submits the documents and meets the admission conditions, the hold will be voided  by the Registration Department, and the student will be considered as a student who has fully met admission requirements.
