The 19th article of the Statute on examination and grading of International School for Social and Business Studies defines five examination periods. Three of them follow each trimester and two of them take place during so called summer and autumn trimester. There are at least four examination dates for each course during the academic year. Students can take an exam after they fulfilled all the requirements defined by the curriculum.
Students are allowed to take an exam after filling out an entry form which has to be submitted to the office for students' affairs at least five working days prior to the scheduled exam. If students decide to withdraw from the exam they have already registered for, they have to do this at least three working days prior to the scheduled exam. Written exams take the form of a written task. Results of written exams are published by lecturers within 14 days after the exam.
Students are graded on the basis of their exam results and short and longer papers they have written as a part of their course. Such grading system enables a better review of each student's knowledge.
