A. Before every block

You must register for every course unit via ProgRESS (this includes your thesis, which also counts as a course unit). You can enroll for a maximum of four course units per block. If you wish to take more than four course units, you need to ask permission from your programme coordinator. With the proof of permission (e-mail) you can go to the Student Support Desk where you will be enrolled you for the courses in question.
If you are registered for two Bachelor's or Master's degre programmes at FEB, you do not need to ask for permission from the programme coordinator. You can visit the Student Student Desk straight away.

NB: New students can also register during the faculty introduction activities in August/September.

How to enrol? See this video: Enrolling in courses and checking exam results .

Registration before the deadline

The deadline for registering is one week before the start of the block. You will only be guaranteed a place in the course unit if you register before this deadline.

Registration after the deadline

Limited possibilities up until 1 week after the block starts: if you register after the deadline, you will not be guaranteed a place in the course unit. There are, however, limited possibilities up until one week after the block starts.

• If a course enrolment is not closed after the deadline has passed, you can register via ProgRESS until the course enrolment closes or until one week after the block starts. You will be granted access to the course unit in Student Portal and you will be registered for the exam.
• If a course enrolment is closed after the deadline has passed, you need to register for the exam in week 5 when ProgRESS re-opens for checking all your exam registrations. If a lecturer agrees, he/she can add you to Student Portal, thereby giving you access to information on the course unit.

Once the first week of the block has finished, you will not be permitted to register for course units. Depending on the course unit, you may be allowed to take the course unit in the next semester or academic year.

B. During week 5 of the block: Enrolment Check Week

During this week, you should check and/or update your exam registrations in ProgRESS. You are personally responsible for doing this.
After this week, you will be not be able to change anything and will have to comply with the official Board of Examiners procedure. If you do not register via ProgRESS, you will not receive a mark, even if you take the exam.

Avoid problems and follow the checklist for this week:

• Check whether the list of exams and resits in ProgRESS is correct.
  You will see a list of the exams you may take. These are the exams for which the faculty has enrolled you automatically and which you are entitled to take. You may not take any exams if you do not fulfil the admissions criteria. You will receive an e-mail informing you about which exams you are and are not enrolled for.

• Manage your enrolments.
  Add any exams you want to take or delete the exams you do not intend to take. Enrolment in ProgRESS is possible during the entire Enrolment Check Week (week 5).
  Add exams:
  You can now enroll for exams or resits for course units for which you were not enrolled. You must fulfil the admissions criteria for the course unit concerned. You will be given automatic access to that course unit in Student Portal.
  Students who do not follow a degree programme at FEB and who did not enrol for the course in ProgRESS have to register at the FEB Student Support Desk to enrol for the exam.
  Delete exams:
  You must delete any exams you do not intend to take. If you delete an exam enrolment, you can still take the resit. Make sure you enroll for the resit.
• Print your exam enrolment.
  Make sure that you make a print of your exam enrolment. You will need this as proof at the examination that you have enrolled for the exam. You will also be asked to show your student card.
• Check exam regulations.
  Make sure you know your rights and obligations in relation to exams and resits. You find all regulations here.
