Holiday semester

Holiday semesters are applied for in the student secretariat.

If there are important, demonstrable reasons, you may apply for a holiday semester until the end of the study conformation period the request must be submitted in writing in exceptional cases holiday semesters are given even within two months after the start of the semester.

Exmatriculat

The exmatriculation is applied for in the student secretariat.

Important: You must be a registered student when you provide / submit credits.

You do not need to be registered during the evaluation process of these credits. However, I would like to point out that the student is assessed ad did not pass, then they must apply again for the course of studies in order to be able to make retake the examination for a second / third time.

You can apply for exmatriculation at any time, even within a semester.

The student secretariat advises to always apply for exmatriculation, with a reason. Even if the exmatriculation would automatically take place due to a lack of transfer of fees from the university anyway.

There is the possibility of reimbursement if the application for exmatriculation is made within one month after the beginning of the lecture.
