14 - Bulgaria - Progression of students
To complete successfully an academic year, students have to take all the exams envisaged by the
respective Curriculum. However, under certain circumstances, stipulated in the respective higher
education institution, separate disciplines exams can be postponed until the following academic year.
Higher schools create opportunities and determine the conditions for:
• acquisition of a second or third major within education towards one degree;
• transition from one educational degree to another;
• acquisition of a higher educational degree;
• completion of education earlier than officially envisaged on students’ request;
• partial education of Bulgarian and foreign students at a university; faculty or speciality chosen
by them;
• transfer of students from one higher school, faculty, speciality, form of education into another;
• interruption of education on request of undergraduate, doctoral and specialising students as
well continuing education after such an interruption.
