d If marks consist of more than one decimal place and the procedure is for marks to one
decimal place to be entered in Osiris, the original mark will be broken off after the first
decimal place. A few examples:
• 5.49 becomes 5.4
• 6.73 becomes 6.7
e Verbal descriptors, without any numerical equivalent, cannot be used in calculating
averages and compensation arrangements.
f All examination results that come with a numerical equivalent can be used in calculating a
student’s average result.
g Averages can only be determined as weighted averages based on the number of ECTS
credits. This is not applicable to students who entered the programme in 2010-2011 and
earlier. For these students the average will be determined as average based on the results.
6 If an examination consists of several modular examinations, the attendant ECTS credits will
only be awarded when all modular examinations have been completed successfully, taking
into account any compensation arrangements.
7 The marks on the list of marks that is attached to the propaedeutic certificate and the
degree certificate are rounded to one decimal place (ranging from x.0 to x.9).
8 The student’s Grade Point Average (GPA) will be included in the list of marks to represent
the student’s performance compared to international standards.
9 The GPA is determined by taking the weighted average of the result obtained within the
curriculum of the propaedeutic phase and/or the main phase. The GPA is expressed on a
scale from 1 through 4, to two decimal places accurately. For information about calculating
the weighted average, you are referred to article 7.11, section 5g. An explanation of the
GPA value will be included in the diploma supplement. In addition, a complete conversion
table (from weighted average to GPA) is available on the intranet.
10 With effect from the entry year of 2012, the GPA mentioned in sections 8 and 9 will be
mentioned on the list of marks of the propaedeutic phase.

Announcement of Examination Results
WHW article 7.13 paragraph 2o
1 The examiner will establish the results of an examination and enter these into Osiris, within
10 working days from the day on which the examination was held. This means that
students will have access to the results (in provisional form) in Osiris.
2 The academy will formalise the results (in definitive form) in Osiris within five working days
after the perusal period of examinations (see article 7.15). Consequently, the definitive
examination results are announced within 25 working days after the examination was held.
3 The results of an examination have to be announced no later than three whole working
days before the second opportunity of this examination. If this term is exceeded, the
second opportunity will be postponed to a date to be set by the academy director. In this
process, the provisions of article 7.15 section 1 should be taken into account. Any
