Cancel Request for Enrolment

You may withdraw your Request for Enrolment via Studielink before the 1st of September until such time as your enrolment becomes definitive, i.e. for as long as the status in Studielink indicates that your ‘Request for Enrolment has been submitted’. If you cancel at that time by clicking the ‘Withdraw enrolment application’ button under ‘My study programmes’, you will not be obliged to pay any Tuition Fees. If your enrolment has become definitive before the 1st of September, i.e. whereby the status in Studielink indicates that you are ‘Enrolled’, you can also click on the ‘Withdraw enrolment application’ button in Studielink. If your enrolment has become definitive after the 1st of September, i.e. whereby the status in Studielink indicates that you are ‘Enrolled’, you will only be able to cancel your enrolment by submitting a ‘Request for termination of enrolment’ via Studielink.
