They may first withdraw from newly registered subjects and then from subjects from the previous academic year which that have not passed, provided, however, that they maintain the minimum amount of 18 credits.

  • (*) During the extraordinary period, students may only apply to withdraw from subjects taught during the second semester and those subjects which, despite being defined by the faculty/school as annual, are concentrated entirely in the second semester.
  • Student grantholders who withdraw from a subject should be aware that this may mean that they will not be able to meet the academic requirements in order to be awarded the grant the following academic year.
