December and January exam period
Book your study place in advance!
During the busy exam period, from 2 December 2024 until 26 January 2025, all study places marked with a dark blue or a light blue sticker need to be booked in advance, using Leiden University's online booking system. Only Leiden University students can book study places.
The libraries offer a few freely available study places, for those visitors to whom the library access restrictions do not apply. These seats are marked with a white sticker.
