2A.4.4 Combined course VAVO-HBO (“alvast studeren”)<br />

Dutch HAVO or VWO students who haven‟t got a pasmark on all of their subjects and therefore<br />

haven‟t got their diploma yet but did successfully meet the selection criteria of IHM, are eligible<br />

for the combined course VAVO-HBO which is also indicated as “alvast studeren”. This entails<br />

that they are enrolled as a course member at <strong>Stenden</strong> University for one year and take courses<br />

for attaining their HAVO or VWO diploma as well as courses within the foundation fase of IHM.<br />

At IHM they are considered and treated as regular students. <strong>The</strong>refore the Exam Regulations,<br />

part 1 and 2 also apply to them. For the time they are a course member they are officially by<br />

definition not considered a student. After a year of being registered as a course member they<br />

will therefore not receive a Binding Study Advice (BSA). <strong>The</strong>y are entitled to register as a<br />

student at IHM at the first possible moment only if they successfully complete their HAVO or<br />

VWO education within the year they are registered as a course member at IHM. In the event<br />

they will be enrolled in the foundation fase and receive dispensation for the parts of the<br />

foundation fase they already successfully completed. <strong>The</strong>y will receive a Binding Study Advice<br />

(BSA) after being enrolled as a student for one and a half year. In which they will have to meet<br />

all requirements of the foundation fase in order to proceed with the post-foundation fase. If they<br />

don‟t succeed in successfully completing their HAVO or VWO education within the year they are<br />

enrolled as a course member at IHM, they will not be enrolled as a student at IHM at the end of<br />

that year. Only if they can present IHM with a HAVO or VWO diploma at a later moment ïn time,<br />

they are entitled to enroll as a student at IHM. If this is the case then only the exam committee<br />

can decide if and what dispensation(s) can be given based on the parts of the foundation fase<br />

which have already successfully been completed.<br />

2A.4.5 Exemption policy<br />

Accreditation of Prior Learning and Work Experience<br />
