7 Authorisation form Personal data Please fill out in block letters. Family name First name(s) Date of birth (dd/mm/yyyy) Code of Conduct international student higher education (revised 4 December 2009) Art:4.7 Art:5.5 As part of the registration process, the higher education institution requests the admissible third-country national to agree in writing with the procedure used by the higher education institution to report the third-country national to the IND (whether or not with prior notice), in case the registration is terminated or after having established that the third-country national has not made satisfactory student progress as referred to in Articles 5.5 and 5.6 At the end of each academic year, the institution determines the annual student progress of the international student. Satisfactory student progress is considered: 50% (or more) of the proportional nominal study load for a full or partial academic year. Contrary to this, international students must successfully complete the preparatory year. In case of insufficient student progress, the institution will examine the cause, for instance by conducting a student's progress discussion with a student advisor. In case the international student does not study at all, does not study enough or cannot handle the level, the IND is notified of the lack of progress of the third-country national within one month after establishing the fact. In case of personal circumstances as referred to in Article 7.51 WHW as well as in Article 2.1 of the WHW Implementation Decree, which can be regarded as valid reasons for unsatisfactory student progress, binding agreements are made with the international student to catch up arrears so that the study can be completed in time. In such cases the IND will not be notified of the lack of progress of the third-country national. Only one exception for not notifying the IND about the lack of progress of the third-country national as a result of the same personal circumstances will be made per reference period per international student. The institution records any unsatisfactory progress and any personal circumstances as well as, in case of a third-country national, the fact that the IND was not notified(see the Appendix). Art:5.6 The IND will be informed as soon as the institution establishes the fact that a third-country national has terminated his/her registration at the institution.
