1. What can I do if I don’t graduate within the allowable study period?

1. They apply to the Academic Committee to obtain its permission to re-register.  It is noted that each case will be considered and examined by the Committee on its own merit.  
2. They re-register and pay the registration fee.
3. Tuition fees are paid at the rate applicable at the time of registration: Registration fee: €850.00, Relevant course fees per ECTS credit and €1.708,00 for the final project

Please note that 15 ECTS credits are lost for each year of delay in the completion of the programme beyond the allowable period, up to a maximum of 50% of the credits already earned, even when a month has passed since the expiration time.Nobody will be permitted to resume his/her studies ten years after his/her initial registration.

3. Tuition fees are paid at the rate applicable at the time of registration:

2. I have all core & elective courses within the allowable study period but my final project is pending. What are my options?

Students, who have completed their courses but not their project within the allowable period, may also apply to the Academic Committee for permission to re-register.  Their petition should be accompanied by the re-submission of a new project proposal, which should carry the prior approval of the faculty member who will be supervising their project work. 

They will also be expected to pay the appropriate fee for re-registering (currently €850,00), as well as the course fees as described under (c) above.  They also lose 15 ECTS course credits per year of delay. 

After receiving permission, the maximum period allowed for the completion of the project is six months and no applications for extension will be entertained.  Where classes remain to be taken the student will be allowed a maximum of one year. In their petition to the Academic Committee, it is, therefore, essential for students to provide a time schedule and assurance that they will be in a position to complete their project within this period.
