Dear all,

Good afternoon.The semester is coming to an end soon and we have some reminders for you:
1. Traveling abroad 

In order for our office and the university’s Health Center to follow-up with students during re-entry and quarantine, please be reminded to complete the attached departure form (with the signature/stamp of your advisor and head of department/institute) and submit to our office (1F of Administration Building) at least 1 week before your departure.

If you will be absent from classes during your travel, please be reminded to apply for leave and make sure to get approval from course instructors and your department/institute before you travel so that you will not be marked as absent and thus affect your course grades.
