Registration for exams

How and when to sign up for an exam

How: You have to register for an exam. This can be done in MyTUDelft or via MyTUDelft app. In this video, there is an explanation for how to register in the exams.

Until when

To give you enough time to register for your exam, the registration will open 8 weeks before the exam day. Make sure you register on time for your exams. If you do not do this, you will not be able to participate. You can register until 14 calendar days before the day of the examination.

Waiting list for students who registered too late

The moment the deadline for registration is closed (13 calendar days before the day of the exam), you will automatically be placed on the waiting list when registering for the exam. You can register on the waiting list until 6 calendar days before the exam. As of 5 calendar days before the exam day, it is clear if there are seats available in the exam room. The first ones on the waiting list will be sent an exam ticket until all seats are occupied.

You will only receive an email from Osiris when you are placed on the waiting list, and when you receive an exam ticket that allows you to participate in the exam. When you are on the waiting list and there are no seats available, you will not receive an email.

Check exam registration

Once you have registered for an exam you will receive an exam ticket on your TU Delft email address.

In MyTUDelft you can check if you are actually registered for the exam. Go to MyTUDelft the section 'Registration' and then the tab 'Overview registrations'. Here you will find an overview of all exams you are registered for.

Exceptions

Students who cannot register through MyTUDelft or via MyTUDelft app  for a specific reason, such as PhDs, can register through ExamSupport@tudelft.nl. BSc MST students have to register through uSis in Leiden and not through MyTUDelft.

Cancellations

Until 6 calendar days before the exam you can cancel your registration via MyTUDelft If you still want to cancel after that, please send an email to ExamSupport@tudelft.nl. This can de done up to 3 calendar days before the exam day. 

Too late with your exam registration?

If the exam is on campus, you can use the last-minute exam admission procedure.

Last-minute exam admission procedure:

• On the day of the exam, you should report to the lecturer/invigilator 15 minutes before the start.
• The lecturer/invigilator will hand out the ‘Last-minute admission procedure and declaration’ form to students on a first-come, first-served basis. You will be asked to complete and sign the form.
• Thirty minutes after the start of the exam, the number of unused places and examination papers will be counted.
• Based on the number of places and examination papers available, students will be admitted to the examination room in the order of the number indicated on their form. The signed form must be handed to the invigilator on entry.
• Missing the first thirty minutes of the examination time cannot be compensated.
• If there are no unused places in the examination room or there are not enough exam papers available, you will not be allowed into the examination room.

If it is a remote examination, it's not possible to participate in the exam.

Force majeure

Of course you may have a good reason why you couldn't register for an exam in time (forgetting to register for an exam is not a good reason!). A student who wishes to invoke force majeure can request a declaration of force majeure from the examination board of the program.
