Students who are studying university Master’s degrees but did not complete them during the 2019-2020 academic year should formalise their pre-registration during the established period. Nevertheless, given the exceptional situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and in light of the fact that vivas for MGAs have been postponed until 30 October, students who have been accepted onto a Doctorate Programme but who are unable to formalise their enrolment during the established period because they are unable to submit a Master’s degree certificate, may do so during November.
