Students dismissed from Yerevan State Linguistic University after V. Bryusov recently raised their dissatisfaction in the mass media regarding the new decision of the Ministry of Education and Science. According to the new order that came into force from January 2012 relevant procedures of passing the exams have been changed allowing student to have up to 12 credit debts.

Student who did not collect the appropriate number of academic credits and were dismissed from the University for the ‘debts’ announced that the decision of the Ministry of Education and Science should have only affected students who entered the University in 2012, because they did not have such a clause when they signed the contract with the University.

‘Pastinfo’ news agency’s correspondent tried to get clarifications regarding the isse from the Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan. ‘I think the best explanation is to study the decision. The decision includes all students. If we did not adopt the new law, more students might have been dismissed’ the Minister mentioned.

As for the observation of students that there were not any relevant clauses in the contracts at the time of admission A. Ashotyan said that the contract cannot include all the norms set by the RA legislation and legal acts. ‘You have to study better, and pay much more attention to classes’ the Minister advised.
