I got a few questions from some of you concerning P4, so here are some answers:

• the deadline to apply is 2018-04-20
• you do this by filing out this form
• WATCH OUT: you need several signatures, don’t start 1h before.
• Pro-tip: don’t print it, instead ask people to digitally sign it with the PDF reader (Adobe and Preview.app have that built-in)
• the ‘3rd mentor’ is the co-reader, you and your supervisor have to pick one. The rules are explained in the Graduation Manual
• your P4 will held during that period: 2018-05-22 –> 2018-05-31
• you don’t choose the exact date, although you can propose it. The central administration does.
• the full draft of your thesis needs to be handed in one week before your P4. Full draft means this
• if you can’t make it, then the following period for P4 will be at the end of September 2018.
• P4 is a go/nogo, thus what you submit is assessed.
• if unsure if you can make, better to register and then cancel later in May.
