Students planning to take 1xbet best casino website in the fall should work with the committee in the preceding spring. Students taking 1xbet best casino website in the spring, should work with the committee in the preceding fall.

Each student taking comprehensive 1xbet best casino website will coordinate a time and place for oral examinations with their PhD Adviser and the Exam Committee, with oral examinations held before the end of the same semester in which written 1xbet best casino website are completed.
The Security Studies Director and administrative staff will arrange the time, location and necessary equipment required to take the general field written 1xbet best casino website at a location on the KSU campus.
