Register your courses and exams

By default, you must register for courses and exams yourself. Check the table below to see what applies to you. 

 

Important

You can only attend courses or exams for which you have a valid registration. This registration will give you access to the course materials, such as the course manual and recordings.
Register online via the Student Portal during the designated registration windows. The Student Portal will notify you when registration is open.

You must register for all courses, (connected) labs, skill trainings, exams and resits that you take in an academic year. See the course overview for the courses in your programme.
Please note: The registration interface may also show you courses from other years or other programmes that you are not required to take.

From 1 June each year, you can register for your courses for the whole year. By registering in advance, you reduce the risk of not being able to attend a course. It is your responsibility to register for courses and exams, so make sure you do not miss any registration deadlines! If you decide not to attend a course, don't forget to deregister!

If you have not taken a course in the previous year(s) but have met the attendance requirement, you only need to take the exam. Rather than registering just for the exam, we recommend that you register for the whole course (which always includes the first exam). This will give you access to the course materials from the start of the period.

Focus points

2024-2025

1 - All courses, practicals    
and skill trainings.

• A course registration always includes the first exam. You do not need to register for the first exam separately.

• A course registration does not include the corresponding practicals. You also need to register for those modules yourself.

• Third-year bachelor Psychology students (also those who take electives at another faculty in the Netherlands or abroad):
for period 1 you need to register for Skills V (PSY/IPN3131), the corresponding practicals Portfolio (PSY/IPN3159) and
Quick Career Advice (PSY/IPN3160), and of course the courses in period 4, 5 and 6.

• Courses that have entrance requirements can only be booked once the entrance requirement has been fulfilled. Courses with entrance requirements are: Portfolio Practicals, Research Practical PSY2027/IPN2027, Statistics II (PSY/IPN2028)Statistics III (PSY/IPN3008), 
and Psychodiagnostics (PSY/IPN3109). 
See art. 4.2 of the Education and Examination Regulation for details.

• Master Psychology, specialization Work & Organisational Psychology: make sure to book Research Methods (PSY4094).

• There are courses where your preference matters, see below for more information.

2 – Exam & resit -
registration

• Most courses offer two exam opportunities per academic year: a (first) exam directly after the course, and a resit later in the year. A course registration
always includes the first exam. You do not need to register for the first exam separately.


In case you did not pass the (first) exam, there is a second exam (resit) later in the year. To register for any resit, use the exam registration window of the period 
in which the resit takes place.

Both exam opportunities are open to students who still need to pass the exam, but already have fulfilled the attendance requirement.

In case you did not fulfill the attendance requirement, you cannot participate in the resit. (This is not applicable for Ba Psychology cohort 2024-2025).

See the exam schedule for the exact dates, times and locations of resits.

The repeat education sessions might help you to prepare for the exam.
