Foreword

"This Student Guide is intended to be a handy compilation of a brief history and mission of our college, information, regulations, procedures, guidelines and advice for students.

As a Buddhist Institution of higher learning, International Buddhist College places great emphasis on the student academic achievement as well as spiritual development. This Student Guide, therefore, introduces the setting and the structure of the College, and also prescribes in detail the regulations and procedures of academic matters. This is a good reference for a student to explore in a deeper sense as to the College’s operating system and the noble purpose of the establishment of the International Buddhist College.

For both new and continuing students may we wish you success in your course of study and research. We also hope this Student Guide will give you a better understanding of the way in which this college operates, and the services and support which the college makes available to you."
