Can an approved application be transferred to a new study plan?

It is generally not recommended to create a new primary study plan. However, if you need to, and have already made applications in your existing study plan, follow these instructions:

• If you copy your study plan as a new plan, a change approved in the free edit mode will transfer to the copied plan as well.
• If you create a completely new study plan for the same curriculum period as the original plan, a change approved in the free edit mode will not automatically transfer to the new plan. However, the text “Deviates from the applied content” will be shown in the new study plan. The text is shown in the section where you have applied for content that deviates from the pre-determined structure in your previous study plan. If you make the same deviant selections that have been approved in the previous application in the new plan, the approval will become valid in the new study plan.
• If you create a new study plan for a new curriculum period, it is not possible to transfer the approval to this plan. You have to apply for new approval for planned studies that deviate from the pre-determined structure in the free edit mode.
