Question: (Last edited: Monday, 28 June 2021, 9:56 AM)GA/FP: Can I do a Business Plan for a Graduation Assignment? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer:
Yes, you can. But it is advised only to choose this option if you have specific plans to start the company you want to write the Business Plan for. This is because writing a Business Plan is the most challenging option and it requires a lot of reading and research with such an in-depth engagement in finance that it is only worthwhile to go the extra mile when you actually need that information for your future plan. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Monday, 20 December 2021, 6:05 PM)GA/FP: Can I request a change or extension in the submission of my Graduation Assignment? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer: The deadlines are clearly stated in the EEG in tabulated form and on the online area, so that students can plan and meet the exact deadlines looking backwards from the expected block of graduation. However, if you feel you are not able to submit your final GA or any of the parts of the GA at the specific date, you need to discuss with your Academic Supervisor in advance. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Monday, 28 June 2021, 10:19 AM)GA/FP: Can I upgrade one of my module results in the same block as my graduation block? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer:
As per the rules, the student should have completed 220 European Credits (ECs) to submit and defend the Graduation Assignment/Final Project (GA/FP). These ECs including the obtained grades are locked in order to allow him/her to proceed with the GA/FP submission. We do not expect any changes in these grades at the time of defence or afterwards. A student could even fail a module in a worst-case scenario attempting to upgrade his/her mark. We cannot work with any uncertainties/probabilities, though in the case of failure in a reattempt a previous pass grade will remain intact. We are happy to facilitate such upgrade attempts, but they must be completed before the GA/FP final submission as per the rules. The student cannot proceed with a GA/FP defence in the case of any pending results. Therefore, it is the student’s choice and decision to proceed with the GA/FP defence without upgrades or wait for the upgrades before proceeding with the defence. Please note the extra tuition and fees it may cost if your graduation gets delayed. | ||

Answer:
You can check the similarity in detail of your submitted file by clicking on “Match Overview” at the right side of the file submitted to Turnitin. Please also note that if the similarity is from your own submitted paper, it will not be an issue. | ||

Question: (Last edited: Monday, 28 June 2021, 10:01 AM)GA/FP: How many graduation ceremonies are there at Wittenborg? Which graduation ceremony can I attend? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer:
There are two graduation ceremonies per year, i.e. Winter Graduation Ceremony (February) & Summer Graduation Ceremony (July). Students who graduated in blocks 1, 2 & 3 will be invited to the winter graduation and students who graduated in blocks 5, 6 & 7 will be invited to the summer graduation. Note: Students can invite their family members to come to the graduation ceremony. A graduation ceremony signifies a close to your study journey at Wittenborg. It is a day full of joy, the perfect opportunity to see your fellow graduates one more time and celebrate your graduation together. | ||
Question: (Last edited: Monday, 28 June 2021, 10:07 AM)GA/FP: How many meetings can I have with my supervisor? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer:
There is no specific limit, but you can always contact your Academic Supervisor if it is required. However, according to the EEG Part 8, "Supervisors are allocated a total of 14 hours per student, which includes marking. Supervisors can expect regular, punctual attendance at Academic Supervisorial meetings. Try to avoid 'dropping in' to supervisors’ offices and quickly asking for advice since the supervisor may need time to reflect on your questions. Students must come fully prepared to Academic Supervisorial meetings, which means that you have read around the subject area, and/or have drafts of material that need to be consulted." It is advisable to send the materials for discussion to the supervisors at least one or two working days before the meeting (depending on the working routine of the supervisors). | ||
Question: (Last edited: Monday, 28 June 2021, 9:39 AM)GA/FP: How much time does it take to write a Graduation Assignment? | ||
---|---|---|
Answer:
Ideally: One block for the topic, one block for the research proposal and two blocks for the Graduation Assignment. The timeline is available in the EEG, Part 8. | ||
