Academic calendar

Changing exam dates or overlapping exams

Exam scheduling conflicts

The Faculty of Law aims to hold all exams on their scheduled dates. However, due to room availability issues or exam conflicts across faculties, exam dates may occasionally change. You must remain available for the entire examination period to accommodate potential adjustments.

Two exams scheduled on the same day

If you find out that two exams you plan to take are scheduled on the same day, we strongly recommend adjusting your study plan. Contact your study adviser for guidance if needed.

Should you still choose to take both exams on the same day, you do so at your own risk.

Compulsory exams scheduled at the same time

If two compulsory exams within the same programme are scheduled at the same time, you may request to reschedule one of them. To do so:

  • Submit your request well before the start of the semester.
  • Email your request to octa-rechten rug.nl.


Only requests submitted well in advance will be considered.
