Non-degree programmes

You have to register for each course module you want to attend. You do this in OSIRIS. For some course modules specific knowledge levels are required. The admission requirements are listed in the course offerings in Osiris. You have to register before each study period (some other faculties have registration periods before each semester). See 'registration periods' below. If you don’t do this on time, you can’t participate in a course. You can register in Osiris for maximum two courses or 15 credits in a study period.

Deregistering

If you decide not to take a course module for which you have registered, or decide to quit a course module, please deregister within two weeks of the start of that course. If you deregister on time, a grade of ‘unsatisfactory’ will not be entered in your grades record. Please also notify your course coordinator: the person in charge of the course organisation. Contact information can be found in the course prospectus or manual (on Blackboard) or on Osiris.

If you are studying at another university or university of applied sciences, you make use of Osiris Online Application. You enrol during the 'registration periods' (see below).

Exams and library

Please note that, as a participant in a non-degree programme, you will not be issued a student card. To take your exams and make use of the university facilities, like the library, you’ll need to have a special certificate that you can pick up at the Student Information Desk (see below).

List of marks

You’ll receive a list of marks after finishing your course. You need this list for the administrative department of your own educational establishment. If you do a minor, you’ll receive a “minor certificate”.

If you are not enrolled at any educational institute, you make use of Osiris Online Application. You enrol during the “registration periods' (see below).

• You can find the schedule of your course with the schedule finder. Your schedule will be ready about two weeks before your course starts, when the number of people enrolling in each course is known.
• If you take more than one course, you have to make sure their schedules don’t overlap. To help you, each course is assigned a timeslot, which you’ll find in the course description in the Course Catalogue. By using of the timeslot model you can avoid overlap.
• The time-table lists holidays, exam periods, etc. Note that the time-tables of the different programmes may vary. You’ll find your course’s programme via the student website’s homepage or by using the programme finder below. If you don’t know what programme is giving your course, you can look it up in Osiris (click on the icon at the bottom of this page).
