- Exam registration and cancellation
Exam registration takes place during the official registration period via Primuss (please note the information e-mail from the study centre).
It is possible to withdraw from an examination in accordance with the regulations up to the eighth day before the examination. The system is blocked from the seventh day before the examination.
Please note: ‘If there is no effective withdrawal after this date and the student has missed the examination for reasons for which he/she is responsible, the grade “fail” is to be awarded’.
- Deadlines and dates for basic and orientation examinations / re-examinations
The first repeat examination (second attempt) must be taken within twelve months of the announcement of the examination result (= after two semesters at the latest). This gives you the opportunity to attend the lecture again.
The second repeat examination (third attempt) must be taken within a period of six months (= after one semester) after the result of the previous repeat examination has been announced.
Please note: There is no automatic exam registration. The examination must be registered for during the regular registration period. If the examination is not retaken on time, a deadline five is automatically assigned.
All important information on this topic can be found in the examination regulations, see in particular §21.
Even if not all examinations have been taken for the first time at the end of the standard period of study, you will still receive a five!
If deadlines cannot be met, it is highly advisable to submit an application for an extension of the deadline to the relevant examination board - this is the only way to avoid disadvantages such as the automatic awarding of grades.
If you fall ill after the cancellation period of a registered examination, a medical certificate is required. Only the following certificate may be accepted: Certificate
The medical certificate must be issued by a doctor on the day of the examination at the latest. The original of this certificate must be submitted to the Study Centre within three working days (Mon-Fri) of the examination. If another certificate or the certificate is submitted late, a grade of 5.0N (administrative five) will be awarded.
