Provisional Admission to Doctoral Programs

Students who have not met the bachelor’s or master’s courses requirements for admission to a doctoral program may be provisionally admitted. Such students must complete these requirements, with a minimum grade of B, before or during the term in which they pass their first 12 doctoral credits.

In addition, they will have until the beginning of the next registration period to comply with the other documents required in their provisional admission.

In case students have difficulty in obtaining the graduation certification or other official documents required by the Institution, they may be considered for provisional admission, if they meet the admission requirements and can submit a copy of the required documents or an electronically accessed version. Students may be admitted and granted a term of up to 30 days to submit the required documentation. The chief executive of the unit may extend that period for just cause. If students do not comply with the requirements by the end of the extension, they will be dropped from the University.
