Marks and marking scale

STADS is up and running

STADS is once again up and running, and you can register for spring classes and exams. The registration deadline is Thursday 7 November at 23.59.

Your exam results (marks) will be published at your Self-Service site.

Average grades

You have the opportunity to have your weighted average grade point calculated and formally verified.

Your weighted average grade point is an expression of your average grade point calculated in relation to the ECTS weighting of the grade points for bachelor’s and master’s degree level respectively. The average grade point is typically used if you want to apply for admission at a university abroad. Please note that your average grade is not calculated in relation to the grades of your fellow students, and that the calculation of the average mark is not offered until the programme's last exam has been passed.

Write to the Study Centre Arts if you need a verified average grade point. The processing time may be up to eight weeks, so please write us in good time before you need the document.

Pass/fail

For exams which are given the assessment pass/fail, the list of results in the student self-service system will show pass or failed.

The use of co-examiners

No co-examiner
Used primarily when the exam involves active participation in the teaching.

Internal co-examiner / internal assessment
Assessment is done by the examiner and sometimes by another AU teacher as well.

External co-examiner
Assessment is done by the examiner and a co-examiner who is not a member of staff at AU.

Administrative registration

On some occasions, there are no exam papers or performances to assess. In these cases, the results are
registered as:

  • BF = Used attempt (brugt forsøg)
  • DF = Failed prerequisites (dumpet forudsætnngskrav)
  • U = Absent (udeblevet)
  • FE = Abandoned exam (forladt eksamen)
