The University of Technology and Applied Sciences (UTAS) announced the opening of its student transfer service, allowing students to seamlessly move between branches within the same programme or specialisation.
This announcement, issued by the Deanship of Admission and Registration, opens up a significant avenue for academic mobility.
Eligible students can apply for transfers from Sunday to Thursday providing them with the opportunity to experience different academic environments within the university.
Prospective applicants are advised to thoroughly review the transfer regulations before submitting their requests to ensure a smooth and well-informed process as they consider a change in their academic path.
The university encourages students to take advantage of this transfer opportunity, fostering a dynamic and enriching academic experience. For further details and to initiate the transfer process, students are directed to visit the official university portal.
