「WD from course的意思，是退選，不是退學。我要再講一次：蔡總統在1982年2月已經完成校方規定的兩年在校要求，獲得PhD的資格，並且回溯至蔡總統1980年10月註冊入學的時間，依照LSE的相關規定，不需要再進行註冊。大家看到下面的時間：1982年的11月，蔡總統在指導教授跟校方的核准下，退選了相關的課程。既然已經符合PhD的規定，就不需要再註冊申請相關的課程。而後續，LSE也發證明給蔡總統，申請延長在英國學生簽證的期間，讓蔡總統能夠完成博士論文的撰寫。我相信很多有留學經驗的朋友都知道，很多留學生在國外生活物價比較昂貴，很多人也是用相關的方式來完成他們的學位論文。」

此外，如果滿足以下條件，博士生將被允許繳納延讀費用：1. 已完成了核准的研究學程；2.獲准繼續註冊；3. 已經全日制註冊攻讀碩士或博士學程三年。
