English term

admitted

English to Portuguese Law/Patents Education / Pedagogy diploma
Dear all,
the text reads - BR English - "the student has passed his examinations and been admitted to the university's Degree of Bachelor of Science with Second Class Honours". My question is: "admitted to the degree", here, means the student has been approved to start the studies for the degree, or has been awarded the degree? Since admission is a synonym of "entrance"...

Gisele Goldstein Mar 16, 2007:
I am guessing here, but I think the honors might be due to the grade he/she achieved in the examinations...
Jorge Freire Mar 15, 2007:
I mean this refers to the level of the course
Jorge Freire Mar 15, 2007:
the name of the course is «Bachelor of Science with Second Class Honnors» So this means that it is a four year course
everardo (asker) Mar 15, 2007:
Thanks for the answers! I followed the same line of thought as you did. My question, though, is (see text): how can one be admitted 'with Honours', if they haven't even started the course?
