Year: 2020

We are committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse learning environment that values the contributions of individuals from all backgrounds. Our Non-Discriminatory Admissions Policy reflects our dedication to providing equal opportunities for all prospective students while ensuring transparency in our admissions process.

Policy Statement:

Non-Discrimination Principle: JUC adheres to a strict non-discrimination principle in its admissions process. We do not discriminate against applicants based on their race, color, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Equal Opportunities: All applicants are assessed based on their academic achievements, qualifications, potential, and relevant experience, without bias or prejudice. Our admissions decisions are solely based on merit and the applicant's ability to meet the established academic requirements for the chosen program.

Positive Discrimination Policy (if applicable): In certain cases, JUC may implement appropriate positive discrimination policies to address underrepresentation and promote diversity within specific programs or disciplines. The use of positive discrimination is done to create a more inclusive and representative learning environment and will be clearly explained and justified.

Transparent Admissions Criteria: The admissions criteria for each program at JUC are clearly outlined and publicly available. These criteria include academic qualifications, entrance examinations (if applicable), work experience (if required), and any other specific requirements deemed essential for the program.

Application and Appeals Process: The application process is structured to ensure fairness and transparency. JUC provides clear guidelines on how to apply, and applicants are given equal opportunities to submit required documents and meet deadlines. Additionally, applicants have the right to appeal any admissions decisions they believe may be inconsistent with the stated policies.

Confidentiality and Privacy: JUC respects the privacy of all applicants and handles their personal information in compliance with applicable data protection laws. All admissions-related information is kept confidential and used solely for the purpose of the admissions process.

Jesselton University College is dedicated to maintaining a Non-Discriminatory Admissions Policy that ensures equal opportunities for all applicants while fostering an environment that celebrates diversity and inclusivity. Our commitment to transparency and fairness in the admissions process is integral to creating a vibrant and enriching academic community.
