How to enrol in a test?
You need to enrol yourself in a test if you want to make the resit only and not follow a course again. You will gain access to view the Brightspace page of the course in the current academic year. Only under certain conditions, it is not possible to enrol in a test. This can be for various reasons, for example when the registration deadline has already passed. In this case, contact the secretarial office of the chair group of the course coordinator.
Starting in the academic year 2025, some courses will have the partial grades registered in Osiris, instead of just the final grade. For these courses, you’ll need to enroll separately for each partial test in Osiris. This is included in this manual.
BE AWARE that you are only allowed to enrol for 2 instances of test per academic year. However, you can enrol for a course more than 3 times a year. But, if you do not want to take the test when following the course, you should disenrol yourself in time for the test to not waste 1 opportunity of taking the test. The deadlines for disenrolment can be found on the following website: https://www.wur.nl/nl/Onderwijs-Opleidingen/Huidige-Studenten/Agenda-en-Kalender-Academisch-Jaar.htm
BE AWARE when you are enrolled for 2 instances of a test and receive a passing grade for the first instance of the test, you are automatically un-enrolled for the 2nd instance of that test.

Courses with partial tests

The partial tests and periods for which you can enroll are listed, as shown below.
If you completed some partial tests in a previous year and the course assessment structure has changed, it may be unclear which partial test(s) you still need to register for. In that case, please contact the course coordinator.
- On the left side of the screen, select the partial test(s) in the period(s) for which you want to enrol. For some partial tests a date is shown. PLEASE NOTE: this is not the date of your test, but the last Friday of a period on which your grade will be booked
- After selecting the correct test(s), click on the green arrow and continue the enrollment as described above.
