Conditions for advancement to the 2nd year

A student advances to the 2nd year if they have earned at least 40 ECTS from passed exams.

Repeating a year

A student who has not met the conditions for advancement may repeat the year if they have earned at least 30 ECTS from passed exams of the year they wish to repeat. If a student has not earned 30 ECTS for justified reasons, the University Alma Mater Europaea Study Affairs Commission may exceptionally approve the repetition of the year. Due to failure to meet obligations, a student may repeat a single year only once during the entire study period.   

Extension of status

A student's status may be extended for up to one year, if for justified reasons they do not enroll in a higher year in accordance with the Statute.  

Provisions on transitions between programs

Transitions between programs are possible within the first-cycle programs of the University Alma Mater Europaea and other faculties in accordance with ZVis (applicable to programs adopted under the 2004 ZVis), Criteria for transitions between study programs, and other regulations. Students enrolled before the introduction of new study programs for obtaining education, who have the right to repeat and due to the gradual introduction of new study programs cannot repeat the year in the program they enrolled in, transfer to the new program under the same conditions as students of new programs.

When transitioning from other study programs to the second-cycle postgraduate study program "Archival Science and Documentology," the candidate must submit a certified certificate of completed study obligations at the higher education institution where they were enrolled, as well as an official transcript of confirmed and valid curricula for subjects and other contents in which they completed study obligations from related fields. If the curricula (subjects and other contents of the study program) from the candidate's previous study do not adequately cover the contents of the postgraduate study program, the "Study Affairs Commission" may determine the missing obligations that candidates must fulfill if they wish to graduate in the new program.
