Repeating a year

A student who wishes to re-enroll must submit an application. The application for repeating a year is submitted through VIS by selecting the Applications tab in the left menu. Then select the appropriate Application for enrollment – repeating a year, complete it, and SUBMIT. By submitting the application, the student guarantees that they have not yet repeated a year or changed their study program or field at any higher education institution in the Republic of Slovenia. By submitting the application, the student assumes criminal and material responsibility and authorizes Alma Mater to verify the accuracy of the data officially and, where necessary, to obtain data from official records.

Within two working days after submitting the application in VIS, the Student Affairs Office will verify the appropriateness of the submitted application and within five working days prepare the appropriate enrollment form, which the student completes via VIS to finalize enrollment. You access VIS through the website https://vis.almamater.si/prijava.htm with your username and personal password.

The tuition fee for repeating a year amounts to 1/3 of the total tuition fee plus 150.00 EUR enrollment fee. The first installment of the tuition fee for repeating a year and the enrollment fee must be paid together before enrollment. The tuition fee for repeating a year can be paid in 1, 2, or 5 installments.

Please check before enrollment if you have settled all financial obligations for previous study years, which is one of the conditions for enrollment.

The student retains student status during the repetition period.

Important notice: a student cannot repeat the 3rd year; in case of uncompleted study obligations, the student submits an application for enrollment in the graduate internship.

Person without status – inactive students

For students who by September 30 of the current academic year do not meet the conditions for progression to a higher year or repeating a year, we will open an enrollment form for inactive status.

Occasional students

Persons who have not yet been enrolled at Alma Mater can complete individual study obligations as occasional students. In this case, they must complete a registration enrollment. With registration enrollment, the student does not acquire student status but gains access to study environments and information support.

Registration enrollment is done by completing the form Application for completing study obligations without enrollment. The completed form is submitted personally to the office or sent by registered mail to the competent office. The form must be accompanied by proof of payment. The execution of study obligations with an exam is charged by dividing the annual tuition fee by 60 ECTS and multiplying by the number of ECTS of the subject. The payment includes practical exercises, clinical exercises, and two attempts at the exam, colloquium, or partial exam, as well as access to study materials. For the third or any subsequent attempt at the exam, the participant must pay the amount according to the valid price list.

Inactive students

Persons whose student status has expired and who have not completed prescribed study obligations in the academic year receive inactive student status. If they wish to continue completing study obligations, candidates must complete the form Application for completing study obligations for candidates without status and submit it to the Student Affairs Office. The application must be accompanied by proof of payment according to the Price List. For each exam, colloquium, or partial exam they wish to take, a new form must be completed.

Inactive students do not have access to Moodle. Access to Moodle is granted only for those subjects for which they register and pay for completing the individual subject according to the Price List. In this case, access to materials for the current academic year is enabled (materials for previous study years cannot be obtained).

Access to VIS is blocked if a student has inactive status for more than 2 years. If a student wishes to reactivate VIS access, they should contact the Student Affairs Office. In any case, the student must make any exam registrations or deregistrations through the Student Affairs Office.
