Outstanding exams are invalid after 6 months. A student must reapply with the stated tuition fee (if any), to complete the course.

Extensions

To get an extension, a student may request it in writing and include a Self-Addressed, stamped Envelope (SASE) or via e-mail, citing the reason the extension is needed. Extensions (usually 2 weeks) are by Director's discretion. Up to two extensions may be granted per exam.
