Questions and answers about exams, term papers and changing subjects

General questions

Please always pay attention to the status of the registration. This field indicates the reason why an examination registration is not accepted.

One possible reason is, for example, a missing course achievement, which in some cases is a prerequisite for participation in the examination.

To check whether the registration has been made correctly, you should check this in your account under registered achievements!

If the exam registration has failed, please contact the Student Service by e-mail within the registration deadline: studienservicefb14[at]uni-kassel[dot]de.

You would like to complete your studies as part-time studies? In principle, all of our study programs are designed and accredited as regular full-time study programs. However, there is the possibility for an "informal part-time study". For this purpose, we have designed exemplary sample courses that ensure a sensible sequence of modules that build on each other. If you are interested, please contact us at the student advisory service.

If you have not passed or definitively failed an elective subject, it is possible to change a subject once per course of study in accordance with the General Regulations for the Subject Examination Regulations. The application form can be found on the website of the Student Services. Please submit the application to the Examination Committee to the Student Services. In addition, you must change the study plan accordingly and have it signed off by the corresponding coordinator.

The application for change is only necessary if your study plan has already been approved.

Examination results that have been passed once cannot be repeated. Exception: Free attempt in summer semester 2020 and winter semester 2020/2021.

As soon as the final exam result has been entered in your account after the exam review, you have four weeks to submit an application for the oral supplementary exam granted once per degree program. Please submit the original and signed application, which you can find on our homepage, to our Student Services. Afterwards, the examination board will review and approve the application. You will receive a message as soon as the application has been approved, after which you will make an appointment with the respective examiner.

Like

The registration period for an exam generally begins 4 weeks before the actual exam date and ends 7 days before, whereby the day of the exam does not count!

Example:
exam date is Monday, 10.03. You can register until Sunday, 02.03./ 23.59 h.

 

  • When registering for exams, please always pay attention to possible system messages.
  • To check whether you have registered correctly, you should check this in your account under registered services!

You register for the exam in the course. Exceptionally, no exam registration in HIS is necessary. Please bring a copy of the certificate with your matriculation number to the Student Services. The entry will then be made manually.

Registration in eCampus is not necessary. The examiner forwards the transcript of records to Student Services and the grade entry including the title of the project is made manually.

You must register for the final thesis via the Student Service. You can currently send the documents by e-mail, post or internal mail to the Student Service. The following documents are required:

  1. The application for admission signed by you and the two assessors (examiners) (you can find the application under "Study programs"),
  2. the approved study plan, if you have not yet submitted it to the Student Service (you can find the study plan under "Degree programs"),
  3. a simple copy of the Bachelor's certificate (for Master's).

The examiner will submit the assignment digitally to Student Services. This will be sent to you by email on the day you start working on it.

When

Deregistration from an exam is possible until 23:59 the day before.

If you fall ill on the day of the examination, please submit the corresponding certificate to the Student Services immediately in accordance with the General Provisions of the Examination Regulations. As a rule, it should be available after 3 working days at the latest, as is usual in the professional environment.

Where

In the course catalog, not only the dates of the lecture can be found under the respective course, but also the examination date from about the middle of the semester. Here, the room and the exact time are indicated and, if necessary, further information can be found under Remarks.

Please make sure that you are in the correct semester, it may be necessary to switch to the corresponding semester first.

A list of exam dates can be found around the middle of the semester under "Study programs" and under "Exam dates" in the Student Services area. This list will be updated successively.

What

If you find that it is not possible to register or deregister in the system, please contact the Student Services in writing at studienservicefb14[at]uni-kassel[dot]de and ask for manual registration or deregistration. Please also pay attention to the deadline (date of e-mail receipt counts).

If you feel unable to complete the exam due to health impairments during the exam, please contact the examination supervisor and have it noted accordingly that you are withdrawing from the exam due to illness and submit a corresponding certificate to the Student Services immediately.
