Your diploma

RSM BSc uses active conferral of degrees. This means that the Study Progress & Diploma Team (SPD) periodically checks which students have met all graduation requirements for their Bachelor's degree program (180 EC), based on information in Osiris. Because many students may still have re-sits, the SPD team will run the active conferral of degrees after 18 August 2022.

If you do not need your diploma or a graduation statement earlier, it is not necessary to request your diploma. As soon as you meet all graduation requirements, you will automatically be included in active conferral of degrees after August 18, 2022. More information can be found on this page.

Need your diploma earlier? 

Then you can request your diploma once all your grades have been correctly recorded and after verifying your personal details (before 18 August 2022). Request your diploma via OSIRIS Student – Cases by following these steps:

1. Log in to OSIRIS Student
2. Go to the ‘Cases’ tab and click on ‘My cases’
3. Click on ‘Start Case’ and select the application form for RSM
4. After completing all the questions, click ‘Submit’

You can monitor the progress of your application in the ‘My cases’ section. If your submitted application is complete, the SPD team will change the status of your application to ‘approved application’ and will start with creating your diploma documents. If your application is not complete, the SPD team will reject the application and you will receive a message about what you still need to do to be able to submit an application again. For more information, please consult this page.

Collect your diploma

There are 3 options available:

1. Pick up in person: If you have indicated that you want to collect your diploma in person, you will receive a confirmation email from the Study Progress & Diploma team (SPD) including a link once your diploma is ready for pick-up. Via that link you can access an online reservation page to schedule an appointment with the Erasmus Student Service Centre (ESSC) in the Sanders Building to collect your diploma. Remember to bring along a valid ID card.
2. Authorize someone else: It is also possible to have someone else pick up your diploma after making an appointment using the link you have received from the SPD team. To make use of this option you will need to fill out and sign this document (downloadable PDF). This form needs to be presented during the appointment.
3. Send by post: If you no longer live in the Netherlands you can also ask the Study Progress & Diploma team (via spd.rsm@eur.nl) to send your diploma to your home address abroad by registered post at your own expense. Please be aware that your diploma will be issued only once, so sending it by post is entirely at your own risk.

Graduation statement

When the active or passive conferral of degrees has been processed by SPD, each student will automatically receive a graduation statement per email. More information can be found on this page.

Graduating throughout the academic year / bachelor study > 3 years

When you finish your last bachelor courses somewhere after your third year, active conferral of your degree applies. This means that, once you have passed all courses of your 180 EC bachelor programme (and they are all recorded in Osiris), all of your grades will be final and no further changes can be made to your grade list (including re-sits for a higher grade). 

You will still need to request your official diploma yourself, by following the above mentioned steps. Make sure you collect your diploma before you deregister as a student.
