Admission procedures
As a general practice with all Iranian state-run higher institutions, all applications are initially processed by the evaluation committees in the related Departments and Post-Graduate Studies Branches respectively. Once the committees take necessary preliminary decisions and (only if) favorable consideration is given to a specific application, the case is sent on to the Iranian Ministry of Science, Research and Technology (MSRT) for final assessment of the applicants\' general qualification. As soon as the institutions receive official positive response MSRT indicating verification of general qualification, the applicants are immediately notified of the result and an official admission is accordingly extended to him/her by the University of Tabriz.
Applicants should note that after each single request is registered as arrived by the International Relations office, it usually takes, as a general rule, at least 1 to 2 months for the concerned Departments on and off campus to finalize handling the applications coming abroad, so all applicants are strongly recommended to enclose the official copies of the academic degree(s) and records certified by the Iranian embassy in the applicant’s country to his/her official request and send them to the University of Tabriz considering the time period required for completion of the evaluation processes. The university will normally not be able to process the incomplete applications or applications that arrive after the expiration of deadlines mentioned above.
