Registration for exams

Check your registrations

When you are registered for classes, you will automatically be registered for the ordinary exam (1st exam attempt).

Always check well in advance of the exam which exams you are registered for, to make sure you are on the right lists, and keep an eye out for potential changes. You can check your exam registrations on the SDU Student Self Service pages and/or in the Digital Exam system.

You can only access the exam if you are registered for the exam, so remember to check your registrations.

You can find your exam schedule with the specific exam dates on this page by the 1st of  May (summer exam) and the 1st of December (winter exam). 

Register for the re-exam

As a rule, you have three attempts to pass each exam.  If you have not used all your exam attempts, you can register for a re-exam.

If you wish to take the re-exam in the same exam period as the ordinary exam, you must register for the re-exam during the exam registration period, even if you have not yet received your assessment or attended the ordinary exam.

You can see  your used exam attempts and register for the re-exam in SDU Student Self-Service pages.

Go to the SDU Student Self-Service pages.

If, due to exceptional circumstances, you have used your three exam attempts without passing the exam, you can apply to the study board for an extra exam attempt. 

There may be specific rules for registration for re-exams for e.g. internships, bachelor projects and final projects. You can find the rules in your programme regulations and/or in the course description. 

If a course is offered for the last time, there may be mandatory and automatic registration for the re-exam.

How to take the exam again 

You must register for the 2nd (and possibly 3rd) exam attempt. You usually have the option to decide whether you want to take the course again in the same exam period (re-exam) or if you want to wait until the next time the course runs and a new exam is held (regular exam).

This gives you two options: 

Option 1

You can register for the re-exam between 1-20 June/1-20 January. You do this in Self-service.
You can only register for a re-exam if you have been registered for an ordinary exam in the same semester. You register for the re-exam before you know how your 1st exam attempt went if you want to take the re-exam in the same exam period as the ordinary exam. If you pass your regular exam, your exam is automatically cancelled.  

 Option 2 

You can wait to enrol in the course until it is offered again, but remember to check the exam regulations in the course description.  Then you can follow the course again and take the regular exam for the course. 

Don't need to take the course again? 
Then you can just register for the regular exam. Remember that you always have to take the exam in the latest syllabus. It is therefore a good idea to access the course via itslearning and read the latest version of the course description. 

 

Register for the exam without being enrolled in the course

You can register for exams without being enrolled in the course. You can register for exams until the 21st of September for winter exams and the 21st of February for summer exams. 
If you want to register for an exam later than the 21st of September/21st of  February, you need to write to the SPOC registry. They will check if you can be registered for the exam in time and will register you if so.
