This period is extended if the secretariat finds that the submitted file is incomplete or the resolution involves correspondence to clarify with the applicant, with the CNRED specialized service or with the institution that issued the document to be recognized. In any of these cases, the applicant for recognition will be notified in writing about this, using any of the communication methods indicated by the applicant in their recognition request.

The deadline for completing the file by the applicant with the documents required by “Babeș - Bolyai” University after the start of this procedure is 15 calendar days from the drafting and sending of the communication by the University. Failure to comply with the deadline leads to closure of the case. After closure, the applicant has the right to submit a new application, which will be processed according to the procedure in force on the date of registration.
