Dear Students,

This announcement contains general information regarding the consequences of a so-called “CampusNet hold”. It is meant as a reminder; regulations have not changed. However, we do recommend that you read this carefully in order to be fully informed.

If your CampusNet is blocked for reasons of missing enrollment requirements (e.g. missing health insurance coverage or residence permit) or outstanding fees with the university, this has consequences for your academic progress.
Students who have a blocked CampusNet account will not be able to access CampusNet/Moodle/Turnitin, which will also mean not being able to access the course/learning materials in CampusNet/Moodle/Turnitin and thus resulting in consequences for the exam preparations.

In particular, please be reminded that you can be excluded from examinations on this basis. 

If you are barred from an examination due to a CampusNet hold, you will not be on the participant list for that examination. This may mean, for example, that you are not given access to an e-examination. You do not have the right to participate in the examination. Since the exclusion from the examination is the student’s responsibility  (due to the failure to fulfill the enrollment requirements or comply with their financial obligations), it will also result in the loss of one examination attempt out of your three attempts in total. 

If you take the steps to have your hold lifted on short notice before the examination, it is possible that your CampusNet is unblocked shortly before the examination takes place, so that you are eligible to sit the examination but our record of it is not yet updated. If this is the case and you believe you should be eligible to attend the examination, you can choose to attend it on a conditional basis. Registrar Services will then check your case after the examination has taken place. If it turns out that you were eligible at the time of the examination, then your examination results will be considered as valid. If you were not eligible, i.e. the CampusNet hold was still active at the time of the exam, then any results you achieve in the examination are disregarded and the examination attempt is considered an unexcused absence. This takes precedence over withdrawal applications or official excuses, i.e. if you are excluded from an examination due to a CampusNet hold, this will result in a missed/failed attempt even if you additionally apply for an excuse or a withdrawal.
