Conclusiveness of admissions made on affidavit by university authorities

dictates that formal admissions of fact submitted by institution officials under solemn oath definitively bind the institution and obviate the need for formal trial. When a University Registrar files a sworn additional affidavit explicitly clarifying an administrative clerical error, detailing the student's authentic registration, and admitting continuous enrollment, the factual dispute terminates. Such judicial admissions negate assertions that disputed factual questions remain, entitling the aggrieved party to an immediate grant of substantive relief.
