Spreading your examinations
Special examination arrangements for employed students
Conditions
You must be employed for at least 80 hours a month throughout the academic year, as well as being enrolled in a fulltime programme during that academic year with a degree contract or an exam contract to obtain a degree, for which you must still take exams to the value of at least 27 credits. Courses for which you have enrolled with a separate credit contract are not eligible for the spreading of exams and are thus not taken into account.
Application
Your application should be submitted to the Director of Student Administration as soon as possible (examenspreiding@kuleuven.be), i.e.:
- For the January examination period: by one week before the beginning of the Christmas holidays at the latest (11 December 2009).
- For the June examination period: before the Easter holidays (26 March 2010).
Your application should include:
- A motivation letter
- A copy of your employment contract, which proves that you are employed for at least 80 hours a month.
Note: Personal information such as salary, etc. may be erased from the copy. If this is not the case, any such information will of course be treated in the strictest confidence.
Decision
Soon after receiving your application, we will inform you of the decision taken by the Director of Student Administration.
In the event that your application is approved, the certificate will be posted to your home address. You must then contact the relevant office at your faculty with this certificate.
The certificate serves as an official proof of the approval of your application and must be taken to all the exams you reschedule outside the ordinary examination period.
