Completing academic year 2023-2024

Binding study advice (BSA)

For first-year Bachelor's students of the Faculty of Arts, a binding study advice of 45 EC applies. You are not allowed to continue your studies if you do not meet this standard at the end of the first academic year.

Binding Study Advice

Applying for diplomas and certificates

Have you completed all courses of your Bachelor's, pre-Master's or Master's programme? Then apply for your diploma or certificate as soon as possible. If you have submitted a request to the examination board, please wait for the result before requesting your diploma.

If you want to obtain your Bachelor's or Master's degree this academic year, you must pass your last exam or thesis before 1 September. If you fail to do so, or if the grading period prevents you from applying for your degree until September, you will have to re-enrol via Studielink for next academic year.

If your re-enrolment is not completed by 1 September, this may affect your enrolment in education, your public transport provision, and your access to the RU-systems.
