Adeptus Minor
After the successful completion of her Matura, the rank of Adepta Minor is bestowed on a student of the magical arts, provided she did the testing at a registered academy. The associated address for an Adeptus Minor would be Studios or Studiosa respectively.
An Adeptus Minor may now continue with his generalized magical education to graduate from the Academy becoming a full Adeptus Magica. He or she would then be addressed as Adeptus/Adepta.
Alternatively and quite often the Adeptus Minor may instead specialize in a specific field of magic application, becoming an Adeptus Minor of his craft.
The appropriate ways of address for the Adeptus Minor of "craft" would be Healer-mage, Carver-mage, Smith-mage etc. This rank represents a level of knowledge on par with a journeyman of the craft in addition to the magical education.
As the last option, the Adeptus Minor may end his magical education completely pursuing other goals. He will then retain the rank of Adeptus Minor and should be addressed as Studios or Studia if the magical title is relevant in the situation. So Alrik, who discontinued his studies could be "Farmer Alrik" or "Studios Alrik". In a formal setting it could be "Adeptus Minor Alrik"
