Study Year 2024-2025

The 2024-2025 academic year will be conducted in-person in Groningen. Students who will be enrolling in Faculty of Law academic programmes for the upcoming acadmic year are expected to be in Groningen when programmes begin in September. Students are also expected to be present at mandatory orientation and introduction events held at the end of August. None of our law programmes are offered as full, online distance learning programmes.

Faculty Introduction

The introductory session for new Law students in the English taught programmes is organised every year by our International Office. They will inform new incoming students about the details of these events via email. For more details, please look at the Step-by-step for programmes on the Admitted Students page.

Education

As soon as students have enrolled for courses, they will have access to the Student Portal of the University. The course descriptions for the 2024-2025 academic year study programmes can be found in Ocasys in late July/early August 2024. If you would like to have an idea of what it is like to study in our Faculty, you can read about the experience of some our students in our student blog.

Questions, doubt, uncertainty?

We can imagine that students still have questions, that they may be anxious or excited about the upcoming academic year. If you would like to contact us in advance, our study advisers are ready to answer any questions you may have.
