Exceptional personal circumstances are, for example:
As a board member of a student association or student organisation, or as a student council member, you could incur a study completion delay. You may therefore be eligible for financial support from the Profiling Fund. Find out more here: Administrative body membership grant.
With the student counsellor you'll discuss whether there is a sufficiently demonstrable connection between your study delay and your circumstances. The Profiling Fund's criteria and provisions offered by DUO can be included in this discussion.
To view the Profiling Fund's rules and regulations in full, download the Profiling Fund from the UvA website. For an up-to-date list of recognised student organisations, see the page Administrative Body Membership Grant for student organisation board members.
You can contact the student counsellors for a confidential conversation about your personal situation and your study progress. Please check our conditions for guidance here.
