In the event of a collision of classes chosen by the student during Preferences, another class group with the available places (identified on the basis of the aggregate preferences of all students) is selected.Bonuses:

- a student of double diploma programme - 20.0
- an exchange student - 18.0

This shall not apply to the courses determined as mandatory in the curriculum.
Rules for withdrawal from classes:- You can only withdraw from courses that are not mandatory, which means that you cannot withdraw from basic courses, major courses, and major electives, languages and Physical Education classes. In addition, you cannot withdraw from repeated courses. Withdrawing from the repeated course will result in the inability to pass the semester.
- Each of the courses available in the form is described in a way that suggests whether it is possible to unsubscribe from it or not. However, due to the different status of the same courses for individual students (related to different fields of study, etc.), the above-mentioned information should be treated only as an indication requiring verification (i.e. checking with an individual program and study plan).
- In the form, the student has the opportunity to choose only one course.
- The choice of the course made by the student is recorded in the database. However, during the period when the form is available, it is possible to change the decision and choose another course from the list or completely withdraw the request.
- In the case of courses starting in the middle of the semester, it will not be possible to withdraw electronically (i.e. you will have to submit an application with a request to unsubscribe; the application should refer to paragraph 23 point 12 of Rules and Regulations).
- After the deadline to submit the request, the Dean after verification of the applications makes the decision. Indicating the subject and submitting the request for unsubscription in the system is not tantamount to accepting the application.
- If the decision to withdraw from a given course is positive, then the annotation “Course deleted” will appear in the “Decision” column (otherwise the annotation “Application rejected” will appear).
