An Additional Learning Requirement (OFA) is a pathway assigned to you if, during an entrance test or initial assessment, you do not achieve the minimum score required in a specific subject area or fail to meet certain prerequisites for your study programme. Its purpose is to help you address any gaps and better prepare for your academic journey.

If you have not completed your Additional Educational Requirements (OFA) within the first year of your degree course, you can temporarily enrol in the second year, but you will only be able to take your second-year exams if you have completed your OFA within the set deadline. 

If you do not pass the OFA within the set deadline, you will be enrolled as a first-year student in a supplementary year. This means that you will not be able to attend any second-year courses and therefore you will not be allowed to sit any second-year exams.

How to fulfil the OFA

If you didn't take the TOLC-I test or your score was lower than 18 points, you can fulfil the Additional Learning Obligations (OFA) by passing in the 1st year, either:

• The Geometry exam
• The Calculus I exam

You are exempted from the OFA if:

• You have already passed an exam in Calculus or Geometry during a previous university career that was not ended due to withdrawal or lapse
• During your final year of secondary school, you attended a preparatory course in basic Mathematics and passed the associated exam
