Regulation Amending the Ostim Technical University Associate and Bachelor Degree Education, Instruction and Examination Regulation
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This regulation updates several articles of Ostim Technical University's undergraduate and associate degree education and examination rules. Key updates include allowing (DC) and (DD) grades to count toward double major and minor program course loads. Students can no longer withdraw from repeated courses, previously withdrawn courses, or non-credit courses. The time limit for course exemption based on prior higher education is now strictly ten years; older credits are not accepted for exemption. Additional exam rights are clarified for students who fail at most two courses with (FF) or (FD) grades or who have completed all courses but have a GPA below 2.00, provided they have not exceeded the maximum study period. Signing authorities for diplomas and documents are specified, with the Rector and relevant Dean/Director signing main diplomas and the Student Affairs Office signing other certificates. Disciplinary procedures follow Article 54 of Law 2547, and students may be granted leave in certain criminal or disciplinary cases excluding expulsion or suspension.
