Common Questions About Dual Degrees
How does the pay-per-exam assessment model work?
All learning resources, lectures, and academic coursework are accessible tuition-free. Students only pay an exam assessment fee when they are ready to sit for their end-of-term evaluations.
Can I participate in graduation ceremonies?
Yes. Dual degree graduates are invited to attend annual graduation ceremonies hosted by both institutions, subject to published convocation schedules.
Are credits transferable between universities?
Yes. Our credit frameworks adhere to international standards (ECTS and US Semester Credits), allowing seamless transcript mobility and postgraduate progression.
