LLB and LLM Students

LLB and LLM students must gain approval of courses they plan to study at their host university from the Board of Examiners, section international. You ask for approval after you have been nominated by the International office. This approval by the Board of Examiners must be obtained before departure. 

Students are required to pass a minimum of 30 ECTS during their exchange semester; at least 25 ECTS must consist of law courses. A maximum of 5 ECTS can consist of non-law courses which are related to the programme (e.g. criminology, international relations, political science, etc.). The characterisation of the courses is at the discretion of the Board of Examiners.

You have to use the online approval form:

- Approval form courses abroad LLB students
- Approval form courses abroad LLM students

All approval forms must be accompanied by the course descriptions.

The Board of Examiners can be reached by email: BoE-Law@rug.nl.
