Chiang Mai University International Program Admission System (CMU-IPAS) is the admission system for international programs offered by Chiang Mai University for Thai applicants and international applicants. CMU-IPAS is an independent system from the Thai University Central Admission System (TCAS), CMU-IPAS adopts the same code of conduct on “Offer Acceptance” for TCAS lead by the Council of University Presidents of Thailand (CUPT). Here are procedures regarding the code conduct:

• 1. Once admission results have been made, a successful applicant must reply to offers in both systems: CMU-IPAS and TCAS in specific time frames for each Round listed in the table below. If a candidate fails to do so, this will be considered as the “Decline ALL offers”.
• 2. For each reply to the offer, a candidate can accept ONLY ONE faculty/field of study out of the list of Offers.
• 3. A candidate has only 3 counts to be able to change the acceptance on preferred faculty/field of study upon available offers. The counting starts at the first time the candidate making the acceptance. Each candidate can turn down an allocated spot just twice but the change must be made within the designated time frame, this counts as the second. The third time will be the last and it cannot be changed anymore except to “Decline ALL offers”.
