Leave of absence & de-registration
Leave of absence
The above-mentioned deadline for submitting leave requests must be kept, later leave requests can no longer be processed and must be rejected. Exceptions to this rule can be found here. During your leave of absence, you keep your student status and pay the full semester fee.
De-registration/exmatriculation
If you wish to end your studies, please submit an application for de-registration via CampusWEB. If you de-register within the re-registration period, you do not have to pay any semester fees and we will cancel your invoice.
Please note that you will only receive a certificate of de-registration (the so-called "Exmatrikulationsbescheinigung") if you apply for de-registration, but not if you miss to register for the new term.
You might need the certificate after graduation to present to authorities, e.g. as proof to the pension insurance carrier or as proof of enrollment periods for other universities.
