5. Cum Laude
The Cum Laude rules are stated in the Rules and Guidelines of the Examinations Board (see
http://student.uva.nl/fs/az/item/rules-and-regulations.html).
Most important conditions:
 The Examinations Board assesses whether to add the qualification of cum laude to the diploma.
 No component is marked with less than a 7 (seven);
 The result for the Master’s thesis is at least an 8 (eight).
 The weighted average of all Master’s programme components, excluding the thesis, is at least an 8
(eight);
 Students who have taken a resit for two or more components and/or have not completed the
programme within the official duration of the programme + 6 months will not receive the qualification
of cum laude.
 When determining the weighted average, the mark for each component will be assigned a weighting
factor corresponding to the number of credits that the component is worth. Components marked with
a ‘pass’ will not be included in the calculation of the weighted average.
 Exemptions will not count towards awarding the qualification of cum laude. Where more than 1/3 of
a curriculum is comprised of exemptions, the qualification of cum laude will not be awarded.
 The weighted average will be calculated over the components that are mentioned on the diploma
supplement.
 If a student earns more than 60 credits within a one-year Master’s programme of 120 credits within a
two-year Master’s programme, the weighted average will be calculated over the components mentioned
on the diploma supplement.
