The fact that the university asked the faculty at the time of application Because the university will choose to pick up the subjects in the faculties that interest us. It is convenient for the first application only.

Let us pick up subjects of political science to accumulate in the pre-degree system indefinitely. It will help us finish political science faster when we are regular students.
But what if after studying, you change your mind? as said “The pre-degree does not belong to any faculties.” If we don’t like political science then but turned to mass media instead We can change to take the subjects of the Faculty of Mass Communication to take further examinations. don’t inform anyone You don’t need to inform the university.

Is the pre-degree system and the normal part of the study different?
Studying in the pre-degree system and studying in the regular semester They are almost identical in all respects, that is, pre-degree students can choose to earn credits in any field of study. Use the same academic calendar schedule. study the same content study in the same room Use the same set of exams as regular students. And pre-degree students have to look and look at themselves in every aspect, including planning for enrollment and exams, which must have a good division of study time both at school and at Ramkhamhaeng University.
Some different things are Normal semester and pre-degree system expenses are regular semester students. 25 baht per credit, 50 baht per credit for pre-degree students
Pre-degree students will receive a degree?
Studying in the pre-degree system cannot complete a bachelor’s degree. Because the pre-degree system is the accumulation of credits only. But the accumulated credits will pave the way for you to complete your bachelor’s degree faster! (Read the hypothetical case to understand more.)
_ _ In the hypothetical case, Nong A applied to be a pre-graduate student with a matayom 3 degree and is currently studying. High school is there too. 3 years after enrollment, it turns out that Nong A has accumulated 100 credits while studying for a pre-degree until he has almost completed his bachelor’s degree program (green circle). Complete the course immediately, but Young A cannot graduate with a bachelor’s degree… If not, bring the qualifications after completing Matayom 6 to change the system to be a normal student first.
If wanting to graduate and receive a royal degree, Nong A must resign from being a pre-degree student. And apply as regular students with M.6 qualifications and register for the remaining credits (purple circles) along with transferring credits that you have accumulated while studying for pre-degree (green circles) together. Then study and complete the exam in the normal system. If all exams are passed, it will be considered as graduation immediately. Able to attend the graduation ceremony (Some people apply as regular students and continue studying for only one semester and they can graduate. because I have accumulated a lot of credits during my pre-degree)

2. Expenses for changing the system from pre-degree to normal system (must be paid in the future)
This cost will occur when Pre-degree students graduated from high school or equivalent (vocational certificate) NFE) and must bring this qualification to apply for a normal bachelor’s degree student and transfer the accumulated credits to the normal system as well. The expenses are divided into two parts:
