Updates from your study advisers: My Study Map - Confirm your registrations! & Second year conversations
Your study advisers want to give extra attention to the following two points. My Study Map and the second year conversations. Read about it below.
Registrations for midterm exams need to be done through the MyStudyMap system. An important change has been made. Only making a registration is not enough, you will need to confirm your registration within 10 days. We would like to stress the importance of this, until now there has been some leniency in the procedure, but this has changed. The rule will need be followed, otherwise your registration will not be definite. The registration will not be complete if you do not make the two steps. Please mind this: you will need to confirm. Read all about this here: there is a handy step by step plan to help you.
You can find all information on this page: https://www.student.universiteitleiden.nl/en/administrative-matters/registration--de-registration/course-and-exam-enrolment/course-and-exam-enrolment/humanities/international-studies-ba?cf=humanities&cd=international-studies-ba#tab-2
The second-year conversations will be planned soon. In the beginning of March you can expect an invitation for a conversation in your email. You can discuss important subjects with your study adviser such as: what do I want to do with my elective credits? What is the best choice for me? How will I go about it? You can also discuss your study plan, and look ahead: What lies after International Studies? Do I want to enter the labour market, do a gap year, do I want to do a master's, which one? How do I make my choices and how can I prepare during my studies? The Study Advisers are looking forward to discussing all these important questions with you.
