2 After examining the reasons of the exclusion, the Rectorate can nevertheless derogate from paragraph 1, if at least eight years has passed since the end of the previous studies.
3 The Rectorate can refuse registration if the actions of a candidate lead to the conclusion, with supporting evidence, that registration could threaten the safety of members of the University.
4 The Rectorate can refuse registration if a candidate fraudulently attempts to obtain admission, for example by providing false or incomplete data, or by submitting false or falsified documents.
5 In the event of refusal of registration within the meaning of paragraphs 3 and 4, the applicant cannot submit a new application for a period of at least eight years.
Art. 77 Conditions to registration and equivalences within faculties
