Hearing and Appeal

At the end of July, you will receive either a definitive BSA or a proposed negative BSA. If you have received a proposed negative BSA, but you disagree with the decision, you can register for a hearing with the BSA committee. During this hearing you can explain why you think you should not receive a negative BSA.

The hearings for the academic year 2024-2025 will take place from 18 until 21 August 2025. You must register for this hearing. This is possible from 7 August 2024 to 14 August 2025 via the registration form. On the registration form, you will also find information about the hearing procedure. More information about the postponement request requirements and the registration form can be found on the Postponement page.

If you don't register for a hearing, you cannot be heard.

After the BSA committee has heard you, you will receive the final BSA from the dean of your faculty within a few days. If your objection is recognised by the BSA committee, you will receive postponement of the BSA and you can register for a new academic year. If you have received a positive BSA, you can register for the new academic year. If you have received a negative BSA, you can appeal against this to the Board of Appeal for Exams.
