How are the registrations?

Once the applicant enters the above information, the system will send to the registered email the login key with which they can access the generation and/or payment link of the registration pin around 100,000

“Pre-registration can only be done by entering a personal email that has not been used in any procedure with the university. If the applicant submitted to a process prior to 2022-1, the system will allow them to enter with the same email that they used at the time,” explained the District University.

He stressed that “the opposite is the case for applicants enrolled in the 2022-1 period who will be able to enter without pre-registration, given that the academic period is active”.

It should be noted that students who are accepted enter with special admission, following the technical guidelines of the Ministry of Education and fulfilling the responsibilities required to be a student at the Public University. It should be borne in mind that the admission of young people will correspond to the criteria established by the Francisco José de Caldas District University by virtue of their autonomy.

This project, which targets young people under 28 years of age who are outside the higher education system, seeks to strengthen, promote, finance and promote the educational offer at the higher level, privileging the participation of official Higher Education Institutions at the technical, professional, technologist and university professional.
