When to apply
Leigitimate reasones for exception enrollment
How to apply
If you do not meet the conditions for enrollment in the higher year, you can apply for exceptional enrollment if you:
- completed all mandatory subjects and
- acquired at least 40 ECTS for the current year and
- can demonstrate legitimate reasons.
You can apply only at the beginning of September. We will publish the exact application deadline and the Academic Affairs Committee meeting date in the News for physics students.
WARNING: The Academic Affairs Committee will not consider late requests.
Legitimate reasons and appropriate supporting documents
- Parenthood: Proof of the child's birth.
- Prolonged illness of the student: An appropriate medical certificate, which must contain the diagnosis and duration of the illness, or the indication of the injury and recovery time after the injury, as well as the precisely stated period (from-to) during which the student was utterly unable to study or fulfil study obligations. (The committee usually grants an extension if the total inability to study lasted for at least two months during the lectures or at least one month during the exam period, or if it is a permanent health problem that significantly affects the student's ability to study. Illness during the holidays is not an excusable reason.
- Exceptional family and social circumstances: A written certificate must be issued by an authorised institution (social, health, pension, employment, etc.), proving that these reasons had a significant impact on the student's performance during his studies.
- Active participation in top professional, cultural and sports events and participation in university bodies: Written confirmation from the organiser of the event or the organisation that sent a student to an event. The document must clearly show the event's type, time and duration. Athletes must have a confirmation from the Olympic Committee of Slovenia on categorisation.
- Active participation in university bodies: Written confirmation from the relevant university body stating the function and work the student performs.
- Year plus in the first study year: Transcript of Records from Year plus. A student must have at least 30 ECTS (including ECTS acquired in a Year plus)
