Stuvo is your confidential point of contact. No question or concern is too big or too small. Is it not yet clear what you need? Then, we can explore this together. Our 'ombudsperson' is there for all your questions concerning education and exam regulations, the fair proceedings of exams or what to do when you miss an exam.
