Regulations for part-time student enrollment
The University of Gastronomic Sciences guarantees the possibility of being recognized as "part-time" students to those who are enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programmes and who are unable to systematically attend academic activities.
The switching from full-time enrollment to part-time enrollment (and vice versa) is allowed only once during the university career. The academic workload required from the student who chooses the part-time enrollment is equal to 45 credits (except for duly justified exceptions) and the normal duration of part-time enrollment will be 4 years for the undergraduate degree program and 3 years for the graduate degree program.
