Title: Tehran University of Medical Sciences Announces Registration Portal for Newly Admitted Students
In a significant step for the nation’s educational advancement, the Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) has officially launched the registration process for students accepted into the 2024-2025 academic year. The announcement, made through the university’s Vice Presidency for Education, marks a pivotal moment for thousands of future medical professionals.
Key Registration Dates and Digital Portal
Prospective students are required to complete their enrollment exclusively through the online system at https://sipad.tums.ac.ir/stdnew from Tuesday, October 14, 2024, to Tuesday, October 21, 2024. The university has emphasized that failure to register within this designated period will be considered a formal withdrawal of acceptance.
Access to the portal is streamlined: an individual’s National ID Code serves as the username, and their Birth Certificate Number acts as the password. This digital-first approach underscores the country’s commitment to modernizing and simplifying administrative processes for its citizens.
Mandatory Documentation for a Smooth Process
To ensure a seamless registration, admitted students must prepare and upload scanned copies (in JPEG format, under 500 KB) of several crucial documents. The required paperwork includes:
- A complete scan of all pages of the Birth Certificate and a 3×4 cm photograph.
- A front and back image of the National ID card.
- Relevant prior academic diplomas and transcripts.
- The original acceptance letter from the national entrance exam.
The process also involves filling out a series of specific digital forms, tailored for different student categories, including graduates, employees seeking further education, and those with specific quota commitments.
Inclusive Policies for International Students
Reflecting the university’s international outreach, the registration guidelines provide clear pathways for foreign nationals. Accepted international students can validate their identity by submitting one of the following: a special foreign national identity card, a valid passport, a political asylum booklet, or a valid Amayesh card.
Finalizing Academic Credentials
All incoming students, without exception, are mandated to obtain an online confirmation for their high school diploma from the Ministry of Education’s portal at www.emt.medu.ir. Additionally, a mandatory online questionnaire must be completed by students upon their initial entry to the portal, facilitating a smooth administrative transition.
Accessing Student Services and Obligations
For matters pertaining to student cards and dormitory accommodations, students are directed to the dedicated Student Vice Presidency website: http://vsca.tums.ac.ir.
Furthermore, the university has outlined procedures for male students concerning national service obligations. Those who have reached the age of conscription are required to initiate their request for an educational deferment through the designated online national service portal in a timely manner, in accordance with state regulations.
