- University decisions: The university's decision is final where the process contains a discrepancy or ambiguity. It may cancel the advertisement or the entire process at any stage without giving a reason.
- Conduct and queries: Attempts to influence recruitment lead to cancellation of candidature. The notice also says interim queries after applying will not be entertained.
