Academic calendar

The academic school year covers two semesters, called "quadrimestres":

• Classes during the first semester of 2009-2010 will be given from September 21 until December 23, 2009; exams are held from January 7 to January 23, 2010.

• Classes during the second semester are from February 1st until May 22, 2010, with two weeks for Easter vacation (April 5 until April 16); exams are held between June 7 and July 3, 2010.

During the third exam session, held between August 23 and September 11, 2010, the student can re-sit exams for those subjects for which he or she has not yet obtained a satisfactory result or for which he or she has not yet taken the exam. Each exam however can only be taken twice during the year.

Students are strongly advised to attend courses from the very beginning , in order to increase their chances of passing their exams at UCL.
