I know there are deadlines in France, at least for Master's theses. In 
Austria, however, there aren't any. If you take too long for studying 
(Master's thesis included), you'll lose some subsidies, but apart from 
that there's no limit on anything. Likewise "the last year" is not defined 
except if you get subsidies (which is probably the case for most people, 
such as myself).

University in France is organized like school; you do certain things in 
certain years. This varies a lot elsewhere.
