ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENT (before applying for Registration) If you are UNcertain if you are eligible for the Programme or if you are entitled to any Study Exemption(s), you may complete the Eligibility Assessment Form on page 7, and send it to CIC with your CV or Resumé and relevant supporting documents WITH the non-refundable Eligibility Assessment Charge of GB 25. Your documentation will be assessed by the College s Admissions Board, and you will be quickly informed whether or not you are eligible for registration onto the Programme, and what if any Study Exemption will be granted - see below - and what your Fee will be. The Acceptance Letter may be used for exchange control purposes, and in support of scholarship, bursary or sponsorship applications, or requests for educational loans or grants. STUDY EXEMPTIONS Holders of relevant CIC Diplomas, CIC Honours/Advanced Diplomas or CIC Higher Awards, or similar qualifi cations awarded by non-cic bodies, might be granted a Study Exemption. A Study Exemption might be granted on a Subject for Subject basis ONLY if: (i) the applicant has ALREADY studied the full syllabus of a CIC Core Subject to an acceptable level AND has passed an Examination on that syllabus set by or recognised by CIC; AND (ii) the recognised Examination was passed no longer than three years prior to registration onto the Programme. Study Exemption is NOT permitted from the Project. For each Study Exemption granted (maximum of 6 permitted) the Fee may be reduced by: Either: GB 150 OR US$300 OR E220 from the full Fee on registration OR the number of Instalments payable may be reduced by one. If a Study Exemption is allowed, the CIC Study & Training Material for that Core Subject is NOT supplied. However, the Member must revise thoroughly his/her former studies of the syllabus of that Core Subject because, even if a Study Exemption is granted from a Core Subject, the Member MUST STILL sit and pass the CIC Examination set on that Core Subject. A Study Exemption is NOT an exemption from sitting an Examination - the CIC Examination for EVERY Core Subject of the Programme MUST be sat and passed even if a Study Exemption has been granted. The maximum number of Study Exemptions allowed is six (6). CIC reserves the right to grant or to refuse to grant any Core Subject Study Exemption. The College reserves the right to amend the title and/ or contents of one or more Core Subjects to be studied as part of the Programme. 4 4
