(Termination of) enrolment
To participate in your studies you have to register for courses every semester.
Course registration
You register for courses per semester in OSIRIS. Choose courses that do not fall into the same time slot. Please refer to the Course Planner to see which courses are part of your programme.
Deregister from a course that you planned to do
If you decide that you do not want to take a course after all, make sure you quickly deregister for this course in OSIRIS. This is possible up to and including the first week of the block in which the course is given.
Courses with available places
Shortly before the start of each block, you can register for courses with available places via late enrolment. We will publish a list of courses with available places on this website a few days before late enrolment starts.
Courses with limited space
Some courses have limited space and give priority to certain groups of students. For these courses, registration for blocks 1 and 2 of the academic year 2024-2025 ends on Monday, 10 June at 1:00 PM.
On 14 June, we will notify you by email to let you know whether or not you have been placed. If you are not placed, you can still enroll in another course until Friday, 21 June.
Are you a subsidiary student? Please email the Student Information Desk from 14 June to find out if you have been placed.

Programme enrolment
You can re-enrol as of 1 June. Make sure to finalise your re-enrolment before 1 September! If you are not enrolled before 1 September you cannot participate in the courses and exams of the first period. The re-enrolment procedure may differ per situation. Read more about (Re)-enrolment.
Please note: It is only possible to enrol with a starting date of 1 September. There is one exception; if you’re starting a Master’s programme with an official starting date in February, then you may enrol as of 1 February. Other exceptions are only possible with the explicit permission of your department or Faculty.
You can cancel your enrolment (application) until the start of your study programme. When enrolling per 1 September, you can cancel until 31 August at the latest, or 31 January at the latest if you are enrolling per 1 February (a starting date that applies to some programmes). In either case, you will not be required to pay any tuition fees.
If you want to unsubscribe for your education at the University of Utrecht, there are a number of things that you need to arrange. Read more about Termination of enrolment.
