Instructions - Process for applying for a degree with the option to take a survey
The responsibility for keeping academic information up to date falls on the student. Therefore, he/she must constantly check the platform and report any anomalies found to the email address academica@umecit.edu.pa.
The application for a degree initiates a thorough review process of your academic record. To be considered a graduate, you must meet all the requirements established by your program and the institution. Completing the application for a degree does not guarantee your status as a graduate, and if you complete an application without meeting the requirements, the university will cancel the application for a degree.
The dates of the graduation ceremony and awarding of degrees are subject to change, which will be communicated in due course.
The student assumes full responsibility for the veracity and legality of the documentation presented in accordance with the requirements of the university. (Student Regulations D-03, Art. 47, literal k).
If you have modified your identity document since your initial registration, it is essential that you notify this change to the Coordination or the Academic Registration Department (asistente.registro@umecit.edu.pa). This update is essential so that your personal data is correctly registered at the time of issuing your professional degree.
The Registration and Control Department will examine the applicants' files, following a strict order of reception and verifying compliance with all the requirements established in the content of the program or degree and the institutional regulations. Those files that present complete and up-to-date documentation will be given priority.
It is an essential requirement for applicants to fully review the degree application guide, a document that has been shared by the academic coordinators and can be consulted on the university's website.
According to the resolution of the University Council, graduates who do not collect their degrees at the counter or do not participate in the graduation ceremony on the dates announced by the institution will be subject to paying a penalty for late withdrawal.
Upon receipt of official documents, graduates are asked to verify the concordance between the academic and personal data recorded and the information on their identity document or passport. If any discrepancy is detected, they must immediately notify the Registration and Control Department. A period of 15 business days is established, starting from the receipt of the documents, to carry out this procedure without incurring any costs.
