Why do I not meet the criteria of the electives in the study progress overview?

This manual describes when you meet the criteria of the electives in the study progress overview.

On the study progress overview, the minimal credits to obtain for 'electives' is always 0. However, you only get a ‘pass’ for electives when you got approval for your programme and you passed all these courses.

Example: in the picture you can see this student passed elective courses worth of 6.0 credits. The minimal credits to be obtained for electives is stated to be 0. However, this student has a 'no' in the column 'passed'. This means that the student either has not yet approval from the study advisor and/or examining board for these elective courses, or the student still needs to complete other elective courses in his/her programme.

When you want to get approval for your electives, request approval in the plan app. For more information on how to do that see How to request approval for electives?
