The specific assessment procedures are set out in the General Regulations for Studies and Assessments.

Notes

1. Pursuant to the General Regulations for Studies and Assessments (Articles 32 to 34), a student who is duly enrolled is not permitted to take, as an external student, courses that form part of the first- or second-cycle programmes in their field of study, unless they are in the final stage of their graduate programmes and, with the approval of the Examination Board, apply to enrol as a non-degree student on a course unit within the same programme deemed useful for the completion of their final Master's dissertation.

Consequently:

A student who enrols simultaneously in a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree (BAMA) pursuant to Article 100 of the Decree “Paysage” Decree will not be permitted to enrol in other Master’s-level courses within their field of study as a non-degree student in order to advance through their programme.
A first-year undergraduate student who, under the rules of the “Paysage” Decree, is only able to enrol for a very limited number of credits in their annual programme will also not be permitted to take courses as an non-degree studentin order to progress further in their bachelor's degree.

2. Any person who is not eligible for funding ^[1] within a degree programme may not apply to take one or more teaching units as an non-degree student on that programme. The applicant’s eligibility for funding will be verified at the time of application.

3. Enrolment as non-degree student is not permitted for teaching units offered as part of a programme of study where admission is subject to passing an entrance examination or competitive selection process (unless an exception is granted by the Faculty) nor for teaching units offered as a part of programmes with a cap on the number of non-resident students.

4. The total credit load for the courses in which a student enrols as a non-degree student must not exceed 20 credits per academic year (across all higher education institutions in the French Community).

^[1] Any person who does not meet the conditions set out in Article 5 of the Funding Decree. If you have any questions regarding eligibility for funding: www.enseignement.uliege.be/financabilite

The student should print the “non-degree student form” (link below), select the teaching units they wish to take, and obtain the signature of the Professor(s) of the relevant course(s).

They should then contact or the administrative office of the relevant faculty to obtain approval from the Dean or their delegate.
