Electives

You must have registered for the course in time.

Additionally, you must meet any entry requirements.

We assess all timely registered students when we allocate places for courses with a capped number of participants in case the number of registered students exceeds the number of students places on the course.

The two most commonly used prioritisation methods are the following:

• The timely registered students are prioritised administratively, according to when they registered for the course.
  
  
• The timely registered students are prioritised by the relevant academic environment at the Faculty of Science on the basis of a number of criteria, which are stated in the course description.

The specific method used for prioritisation is stated in the comments field in the course description.

At any time, PhD students are given first priority for PhD-level courses.

You will be notified by e-mail if you are not admitted to the course. In such case, you will be placed on a waiting list.

If you have been admitted to a course with a waiting list, you must attend the first lesson in order to keep your place on the course or otherwise notify the teacher that you wish to keep your place. This also applies if you are absent due to illness.

If you fail to attend the first lesson without notifying the teacher beforehand, you will be deregistered from the course.

Even if you have been placed on a waiting list for a course due to capacity issues, you should attend the first lesson anyway.

If you have been admitted for a course with a waiting list, but fail to attend the first lesson, you lose your place on the course. Any vacant places will be allocated to students on the waiting list, according to their placement order in the waiting list. Only students attending the first lesson will be considered for a place in the course.

Once teaching has started, the waiting list is annulled.
