  4. Passing the course causes granting the certain amount of ECTS points to the student specified in the study programme and in accordance to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).
  5. Non-completion of a course at a given study stage shall result in the necessity to retake the classes in this course, i.e., to complete the course again, to complete an equivalent course or a course from the same group of courses, depending on the study programme.
  6. If the retaken course includes classes of various types, the student may be exempt from the requirement to retake some classes for which the achieved learning outcomes have undergone positive verification. The conditions of such exemption shall be laid down in course regulations.

  3. A fail grade (2.0) shall be equivalent to non-completion of a course by a student.

The rules of registration for the next semester of studies

  2. The nominal number of ECTS points is 30 per semester.
  3. Awarding the number of ECTS points not lessen than ratio of realized semesters number (study periods) and nominal number of ECTS points in the semester means that the student has fulfil the full registration requirements.
  4. The condition of the registration for the next semester of studies is fulfilling the minimal register requirements. The number of ECTS points required for the minimal registration for each stage of studies is given in tables at the end of the document.
  5. The conditional registration is awarded to the student, who has completed the lower number of ECTS points than required to full registration, but the same or higher than indicated in the tables above.
  6. Lack of academic progress determined on the basis of the student’s failure to meet the minimum registration requirements may be the basis for striking the student off the register of students.
