Sintesi Omnilex

A university student requested a prolongation of the deadline for completing first-cycle examinations, arguing that the need to work justified an exception. The court held that the governing rule requires completion within two years regardless of the number of examination attempts, and that employment obligations are not an extraordinary circumstance. The request was therefore rejected.

Massima Omnilex

RU.87; university examination period and extension for extraordinary circumstances: the first-cycle examinations must be completed within two years, irrespective of the number of attempts available. An extension may be granted only in exceptional cases. The obligation to work, even if burdensome, is an ordinary personal circumstance and does not qualify as an extraordinary circumstance within the meaning of the rule.
