Did you register for a course with priority rules? Then check in Osiris whether you have been admitted and, if not, quickly register for another course. After the 25th, you will only be able to register for courses with available places during late enrolment. Please note: the enrolment dates for Science, Geosciences and Social Sciences are different from those of Humanities.

Education
 
On Monday 5 December, classes will not be taught after 17.00, unless your lecturer explicitly communicates that teaching will continue as normal.

At the Faculty of Humanities, we have 1 extra week of Christmas holidays. So in the week of 9-13 January, there will be no teaching activities, tests, resits nor deadlines. Your lecturer may, however, ask you to prepare something in advance. If you are taking courses at another faculty, you are out of luck: lectures at other faculties than Humanities will start on 9 January.

All our teaching is on location. If you cannot come to lectures for a longer period of time, please contact your study advisor.
 
   
 
 
 
 
How to get in touch with your Study Advisor quickly
 
 
Unfortunately, it is not always possible to book an appointment  with your Study Advisor on the spot. Do you have a pressing question? Then visit the telephone consultation hours every working day from 10 to 12. Many programmes also offer a walk-in consultation hour.

Useful tips: Keeping track of your courses in Blackboard
 
 
In Blackboard, you can very easily keep track of all your courses via My Courses > Settings > Group by Term. 

You can then collapse and unfold teaching periods with the grey triangles. If you no longer want to see a certain course period, you can uncheck it by clicking the settings wheel again and simply uncheck the course period.

And so on ...
 
From Block 2 onwards, course evaluations in Caracal are shorter. We have also slightly reworded the open-ended questions to prevent students from making inappropriate comments about fellow students or teachers.

You can still submit ideas for spending NPO funds. The deadline has just passed, but call is coming soon!

What did you think of the One Book One Campus campaign? Let us know!

Friday 9 December is Purple Friday, so don't hesitate and put on some purple that day!
