Binding Study Recommendation

The UT enforces a binding recommendation for all Bachelor programmes. To receive a positive recommendation you have to obtain 45 of the 60 first year credits (EC’s). For the bachelor programme Communication Science this can be accomplished by:

  1. Completing at least three complete modules (45 EC); OR
  2. Completing at least 75% of the first-year study load (300 out of 400 percentage points module component weighting factors, as registered in OSIRIS); provided that students have no more than one insufficient grade in each study unit- (the four study units in the first year are: Project, Theory, Research and Skills).

Not meeting this norm means that you cannot re-enroll in the programme for the next three years, save situations in which personal circumstances played an important role.
