Tips for organizing your exam:

  • Registration: Please refer to your examination regulations for information on the type and scope of examinations. The subject examination regulations of the BA and MA degree programs are supplemented by the General Provisions. Examination registrations are binding. If the course you are taking does not comply with your examination regulations and registration, it will be deemed not to have been completed. For reasons of equal treatment, any graded coursework for which you have not registered will also be deemed not to have been completed.
  • Deregistration: The lecturers set the deadlines for registering and deregistering for examinations individually. Cancellation is generally possible without giving reasons until the day before the examination, especially for term papers until the end of the semester (March 31 or September 30). Reasons for withdrawal after the deadline must be submitted to the examination board in good time. In the case of illness, a medical certificate must be provided. Please present your certificates to your lecturer and submit them to the Examinations Office so that your examination registration is not recorded as a failed attempt. The certificates must be submitted promptly, no later than three days after the examination date. Registered work that is not performed will be graded as "failed".
  • Repeat examination: Registration is also required for repeat examinations. If this is not possible for technical reasons, please contact your examination office.
  • Final failure: This is not the end of the world! If all repeat attempts have been assessed as "failed", it is no longer possible to register for further examinations in this degree program. It may be possible to switch to a related degree program. The General Student Advisory Service or the Examination Offices can help you with this.
