For which items may a personal contribution be requested from the student?
Generally students need to pay themselves for resources that are relevant to their study programme, such as syllabi/readers, lab coats, art supplies for art education, or a calculator. Students need to pay for their books, or use a library book. In addition, a contribution can, for example, be asked for an excursion, study-trip, or introduction activity, as long as a free alternative is available also, or you do not receive study credit for the activity. You cannot request repayment in these situations.
