The propedeutic examination, the bachelor examination and the master examination are passed as soon as the board of examiners has established that the candidate has passed all the course units that are part of the course programme. There is no actual examination of the candidates apart from the exams that have taken place on the separate course units.
When the board of examiners has established that the candidate has met all the requirements, the graduation certificates are handed out in a formal graduation session. The graduation certificates (there are a Dutch as well as an English version) are signed by the board of examiners as well as by the candidate. A diploma supplement is handed out as well.
