(*) Re-take exams are only available for UPF or ESCI regular courses and these exams take place after the end of the term for students who have failed a course in the first call (during regular exam period). Re-take exams will only be available in absentia if the professor and pertinent School agree (i.e., international students are expected to pass the exams in the first call.
