The university is under legal obligation to actively issue your degree once all curricular components have been completed. When the last result is booked in OSIRIS you will receive a confirmation email from the Study Progress and Diploma (SPD) Office that your degree has been awarded. This means:


  1. No adjustments or additions can be made to the grade list;
  2. You can no longer improve an already sufficient exam result.


For the one-year MSc programmes: please be aware that if you have passed all your courses (including the master thesis trajectory) it will not be possible to improve the grade of a sufficient Block 5 result, even if the formal resit period has not yet taken place. This can also be the case for a Block 4 course, if the improved grade is booked in OSIRIS after you have received confirmation that you have been awarded your degree.


If your diploma has been actively issued by the university before your improved course result is recorded in OSIRIS, the improved result for your block 4 or 5 course will not be mentioned on the grade list (and thus will not be counted towards your GPA). However, you can request a separate transcript for this course with your improved result.
