4.1. DISMISSAL for academic reasons

BME dismisses students for academic reasons on the basis of the study results entered until 29^th of June, 2022 in the term 2021/22/2 for the following reasons:

• If twice the training period (specified in the Training and Output Requirements) expires and you do not obtain the „Absolute” (Abszolvált) student status. You can find your deadline for obtaining the „Absolute” student status, in NEPTUN/ Studies/ Training data/ menu under Expected graduation date. If you have submitted an E999 request in advance, the Faculty Study Committee could grant an extension of training time. In case of other types of dismissal, there is no possibility to request a prior exemption.
• If the total number of failed exams/ comprehensive exams taken after 1^st of September, 2012 in the same subject, in the same training program, reaches six. A failed exam is considered to be the exam that the student attempts to pass but receives an insufficient (1) grade. Dismissal due to 6 insufficient is required by law, therefore it is not possible to obtain an exemption from dismissal on an equitable basis (Faculty Chance does not apply), even if the student may have passed the subject in a 7^th exam.
• In the same training program, even after 6 enrollments, credit points for the same subject have not been acquired. (Applicable from the 2015/16/2 term.)
• If a student's legal status has been established in BSc or Integrated MSc training program after 1^st of October, 2015, and the cumulated grade point average does not reach 2.25 at the end of the fourth „Active” term after enrollment. The cumulative grade point average is the value entered in the Cumulated grade point average field for the 2021/22/2 term in NEPTUN/ Studies/ Grade average menu.
• If a student's legal status has been established in MSc training program after 1^st of October, 2015, and the cumulated grade point average does not reach 2.50 at the end of the second „Active” term after enrollment. The cumulative grade point average is the value entered in the Cumulated grade point average field for the 2021/22/2 term in NEPTUN/ Studies/ Grade average menu.
• If a student's legal status has been established after 1st of October, 2015, and at least 20 credits have not been obtained in the last three „Active” terms, or have been re-admitted to the given training program and have not obtained at least 10 credits in the first three „Active” terms since enrollment (provided that the student did not participate in a part-time study abroad training program in which studies are credited at BME).

If the decision to terminate the student’s legal relationship becomes final, the legal relationship of students who are dismissed for academic reasons becomes terminated on 27^th of June 2022.

The dismissal decision can only be revoked if an E001 request is submitted through NEPTUN before the legal remedy's deadline. With the exception of the six insufficient grades, the Faculty Study Committee may grant an exemption as well, so CAO will ask for their statement before the appeal goes to the Legal Redress Committee. In case of exemptions received in other requests in advance, the E001 request must also be submitted and, in the „Reasons of my request” section must be referred to the other in which the exemption was granted in the first place.

4.2. Dismissal upon request

If a student wishes to terminate his/her legal relationship with BME then an E032 request can be submitted through NEPTUN. The request is continuously available.

The legal relationship becomes terminated on the day of filing it, i.e. the on day the E032 request is submitted. When the request is accepted and closed by CAO, an Official Note regarding the dismissal and a Resolution attached to it will be registered in NEPTUN.

All outstanding financial liabilities towards BME must be settled. If you have a liability, the fact will be recorded in the Resolution.

Upon receipt of the Resolution to dismiss, a Credit Certificate (Transcript of Records) of the completed subjects and obtained credits can be requested by submitting an E027 request through NEPTUN.

If you wish to terminate your legal relationship due to admission to another BME training program or to another institution in Hungary, please inform CAO about your intention in advance and be informed about the necessary admission process to the new training program or institution.

5. TERMINATING SCHOLARSHIP status (reclassification)

Terminating your scholarship status does not mean you are losing your legal relationship with BME as well. You will be automatically reclassified into a tuition fee-paying student status and all the rules regarding the tuition fee deadlines and enrollment for terms or exams will apply to you.

For new tuition fee-paying students, the Study contract must be signed by 1^st of September 2022

- 040_Presentation of document form certified by AVDH, or

- printed in duplicate, signed by the student in person at the CAO, available on the CAO website at the opening hours

5.1. terminating scholarship status BASED ON STUDY RESULTS (36 credit rule)

Pursuant to section III.3.3 of the Stipendium Hungaricum Programme Operational Regulations, whenever an academic year is closed, higher education institutions shall check if scholarship holders collected 36 credits in total in the two most recent active terms. Only the credits collected shall be considered, the credits transferred shall be excluded. Students starting their higher education studies before the 2018/2019 academic year or in a doctoral programme or in a preparatory course are not subject to the credit minimum requirement. If a student fails to collect the required number of credits, the higher education institution shall terminate the scholarship holder status (until 15th of July at the latest) and notify the Tempus Public Foundation.

The scholarship holder can request equity by submitting an E999 request through NEPTUN. If the Faculty Study Committee supports the request, the University forward it to the Tempus Public Foundation. Expected time for final decision is after 22nd of August 2022.

5.2. terminating scholarship status based on expiring scholarship Agreement

Your scholarship holder status will automatically be terminated upon the termination of your scholarship agreement.

Your scholarship period can be modified if you are admitted to a preparatory course before your training program, or if you change institutions or training programs, or if you take „Passive” terms. In these cases, you will be notified before your original scholarship period ends and you will receive a new Letter of Award instead of termination.

You can apply for a scholarship period extension on your own two times during your studies. You will lose your scholarship status if your extended periods are over or if your request for extension is rejected by the Faculty or by the Tempus Public Foundation.

5.3. Further reasons of terminating scholarship status

The scholarship holder status will automatically be terminated if you are dismissed from BME for academic reasons or upon your own request. In this case, your legal relationship will be terminated as well.

The scholarship holder status will automatically be terminated if you obtain the „Absolute” (Abszolvált) student status. In this case, your legal relationship will be terminated as well.

The scholarship holder status may be terminated based on the student’s written request (delivered via email).

The scholarship holder status will also be terminated if a student becomes entitled to the same rights as Hungarian students, i.e. obtains Hungarian citizenship (including dual citizenship) or granted asylum and/or protection in Hungary.

The scholarship holder status shall also be terminated if a scholarship holder fails to meet the requirements stated in their Letter of Award.
