Retake exams

If you did not pass a course, it is possible to retake the exam under certain conditions. If you have met the course’s effort requirements and your final grade is at least a (NON-rounded off) 4, then you are permitted to retake a course exam. The effort requirements can be found in the Course Catalogue.

Please note: passed courses can't be retaken in the academic year in which the course has been followed.

Replacement exam

With a non-rounded off 4, you may take a replacement exam (RE). This exam comprises the whole of the study material, and in most cases you will take an entirely new exam or assignment. The grade for this retake exam will be your new final grade.

Supplementary exam

With a non-rounded off 5, you can choose either a replacement exam (RE) or a supplementary exam (SR). In a supplementary exam, only the part of the first exam which you do not master, will be tested. If you pass the supplementary exam, your final grade will be a 6. If you do not pass the exam, your final grade will remain a 5.
