Who is authorized to edit the basic term-related information?

• Term enrolment, term enrolment application
  Term enrolment applications are usually submitted during the period between the start of the examination period of the previous term and the end of term enrolment application submission period. The applications should be submitted via the NEWTON Information System. During the term enrolment period, the Office for Studies confirms enrolment for the students who have submitted their term enrolment applications and who, at the same time, meet term enrolment requirements.
• Registration for courses
  The period during which students select the courses they want to be enrolled in for the following term. Registration periods usually start in December and June. Students can register for any course and it is the registration application that informs them whether they meet course enrolment requirements or not. The information about students' preferences obtained during the registration period is consequently used for making timetables.
• Course enrolment period
  The period during which course registration is confirmed. The enrolment for the successfully registered courses will be done by the Office for Studies as a batch operation. If the student does not meet enrolment requirements (due to not meeting enrolment pre-requisites, no vacancies in the course, etc.), the student can ask the teacher of the course for enrolment in the course by using the IS NEWTON.
• Course enrolment changes
  Course enrolment changes (enrolment in courses and cancellations) can be made by the end of the period of course enrolment changes.
• Timetable released:
  The item specifies the date on which a timetable is made accessible to students and from which it is possible to make reservations for classrooms in the selected term. If no date is specified, the timetable is not made accessible to students and there are no restrictions placed on classroom reservations. The timetable must be released before the start of course enrolment period of the term it has been designed for.
• Enrolment in seminar groups
  The period during which students enrol in seminar groups (applies only to the courses with such groups). Teachers can define the length of the period using Teacher's Notebook. Provided they decide not to do so, the application uses default settings.
