In the case where the number of applicants exceeds the seats available, only the student(s) with the highest GPAX will be accepted. So the acceptance could not be guaranteed. Additionally, if there are already 2 fullyear students enrolled at PGS in the Fall semester, the program will not be able to accommodate additional students in the subsequent Spring semester. |\n\n\n|  | Regarding the BBA program at Chulalongkorn Business School, due to its consistent popularity, we are expecting a larger number of students for the Spring semester. Consequently, we have decided to decrease the intake of exchange students for the fall semester. This measure aims to effectively handle class overcrowding and ensure the highest quality of education for all students. For students interested in applying to the BBA program at Chulalongkorn University, we kindly suggest considering applying for the Spring semester to enhance the chances of a successful application.\u003Cbr>Exchange students majoring in Thai who wish to attend the Department of Thai in the Faculty of Arts are required to submit the results of a Thai language proficiency test. They must demonstrate strong fluency in all four language skills—listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Therefore, students applying to the Department of Thai are typically expected to provide a letter, document, or test result from their Thai Language Center or Thai Department certifying their proficiency in all four skills.\u003Cbr>We also recommend that the student write a Statement of Purpose (SOP) in Thai. This will allow the department to better understand students'proficiency in the language and assess their suitability for the program. Submitting the English Language test is optional.\u003Cbr>Exchange students pursuing a Master's degree are now restricted to registering for a maximum of 6 credits (equivalent to 2 courses) within the official schedule through the course registration system.\u003Cbr>Should any Master's students wish to add a course or exceed this limit, we will require documentary evidence from their home university j","cbCaiumliNynp6tW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiumliNynp6tW","pdf",209343,"English","# Academic Calendar\n## Exchange Duration\n# Language Proficiency Requirement\n## CU International Programme (English-medium)\n## Thai language requirements\n## Program-specific IELTS/band requirements\n# Course Information and Credits\n## Undergraduate course load\n## PGS capacity and acceptance rules\n## BBA intake guidance\n## Master’s credit registration limit\n# Accommodation and Visa\n## Housing reservation\n## Student/education visa requirement","[{\"question\":\"What are the semester dates for the Chulalongkorn University exchange academic calendar?\",\"answer\":\"Semester 1 (Fall term) runs from August to December, and Semester 2 (Spring term) runs from January to May.\"},{\"question\":\"What language proficiency is required for CU courses during the exchange term?\",\"answer\":\"CU International Programme courses are conducted in English, so students should have reasonable English proficiency.
