·  Be enrolled in 2024/2025 as a student at an Institute for Higher Education in the Netherlands for a ‘CROHO’ registered programme;

· Submit a ‘Proof of Payment of Tuition Fees 2024/2025’;

· A written permission from the Examining Boards of the home institute and of the WUR is required to participate in a thesis, research practice and AMC/ACT courses.

· Please note: subjects/courses with a set maximum number of participants

Some courses have a set maximum number of participants (see the Study Handbook). Bijvakstudents can register for these courses but it is highly probable that they cannot be admitted, because regular bachelor’s and master’s students of Wageningen University & Research are given priority for placement for these courses. If bijvakstudents want to apply for a course with a maximum number of participants, also if it is part of a minor, they must submit an alternative course when the course of their first choice is not possible. If you would like to do a minor that includes a course with a maximum number of participants and if you have a problem finding an alternative course, please contact the minor coordinator (see: https://www.wur.nl/en/Education-Programmes/BSc-Minors.htm)

Make sure that if you want to follow a course with a set maximum number of participants, you register yourself as a bijvakstudent one week before the deadline via registration for the course;

Safety courses

For a large number of courses it is compulsory to follow a so-called safety course prior to the course. This is a e-course and takes approx. 1,5 hours. You will not receive any credits for this and there are no costs involved. However, you do have to sign up for this.

So check carefully with the courses for which you have registered whether this falls under the mandatory knowledge. You can see it in the OSIRIS Student Mobile (osiris-student.nl) under mandatory knowledge. These are the only courses that you are allowed to take without the permission of your Examination Board.

Courses with a maximum:

An earlier registration date applies for a course with a maximum number of participants. Bijvakstudents usually cannot be admitted to a subject with a maximum. Check the information at ‘Requirements for Enrolment’.
