Question:

Retake of Remaining Module: What shall I do if I still have 1 or 2 pending modules prior to graduation?

Answer:

On condition that a student has a mitigating circumstance and/or a minimum of 210ECs (Bachelors) and 55ECs (Masters), a request can be made for a Retake of the Remaining Module if the remaining module is not within the block(s) prior to Graduation.  A maximum of two modules may be requested. Students are permitted to retake these remaining modules only once as a special seat. If the special seat retake is not successful, the student must follow the standard module planning process for retaking the exams. 

A Retake of the Remaining Module can only be done when a student has attempted the normal exam (1st attempt). 
Retake of the Remaining Module requests must be made no later than Lesson Week 1 of the block of the planned Retake, i.e. For a retake request in Block October: the request has to be made in Lesson Week 1 of Block October.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Students must have attempted the subjected module they request a special seat for during the last block/retake it was offered.
  • To be eligible for a special retake under mitigating circumstances, students must have gained a minimum score of a 4.0 in any of the previous attempts.
  • A student is eligible for a special retake only if the student has made progress with the GA fulfilling the requirements as indicated in Part 8 of the EEG and are approaching their graduation date.


- This request is not applicable for Pre-master, Research proposals/Professional Based Learning/Project Week/Graduation Assignment/Final Project/Work Placement Report deadline extensions.

In situations where there is an approval, please not that the special seat retake will be planned in the exam week with other regular exams. For Type 2 exams the deadline will be Monday of the exam week and Type 1 will be planned and can be viewed from the timetable. This means that the exams can only be marked after the exam week. 

After submitting your request for Retake of Remaining Module during Week 1 of the current block, you will receive an email by Friday of Week 2 from examresults@wittenborg.eu informing you of the decision.


Please follow the instructions and fill in the Retake of Remaining Module Form on time.
