Residence Benefit Allocation (AVG) 1 semester 2020

Objective

The Residency Benefit supports students who have completed their study plan, including the credits of the Thesis, but who still have pending completion of it (defense or final exam). It is recognized in the systems as “Graduate Student” or “AVG Doctorate”. This benefit frees the student 100% from the semester tuition fee and keeps him linked to the University. In this way, it allows you to access the services of Student Health, Library, TUC, Portal, and UC mail.

The AVG Doctorate status must be renewed every six months through the application processes administered by the Graduate School of the Vice-rector’s Office for Research. It can be extended until the student completes 10 semesters of permanence in his Doctorate Program. Exceptionally and for justified reasons, this period may be extended for 2 additional semesters, at the express request of the thesis director and the head of the program, by means of a letter attached to the application form.

Requirements

• Have enrolled and approved in previous semesters, all the credits and activities of the study plan, including the credits of the Thesis courses, annual follow-up activities, internship, scientific article, English tests (CPD0100 and CPD8000), and transversal skills workshops.
• Have the Candidacy Exam and Thesis Project approved (associated acronyms must appear in the accumulated academic record qualified).
• Not having courses pending to qualify (P grades) in the academic record. Only I grades will be accepted in the last course of the Doctoral Thesis, the Scientific Article, the Annual Follow-up Activity II, and the English certification (CPD8000 – Sufficiency English Test).
• Not having courses of any kind enrolled in the semester in which the Residence Benefit will be assigned.
