Introduction to the Admission and Registration Department

 

The Admission and Registration Department is one of the most important departments in the university due to its direct relationship with students, instructors, and academic affairs. It is where the student's relationship with the university begins by applying for admission, and it continues through academic monitoring via the student's academic record and the application of academic regulations. It also concludes the student's relationship with the university by providing graduation documents upon completion of the program.

This relationship also emphasizes the connection between the instructors and the department in terms of monitoring and recording student grades in courses, ensuring the completion and fulfillment of their academic records, and ultimately graduation. The mentioned connections highlight the significance of the relationship between the Admission and Registration Department and the academic affairs at the university.
