Exam Administration

Exam Registration:

Registration for the course is done through the registration portal; registration for the module examination is handled by the Examination Office.

Special Cases:

If you wish to complete the Studium Fundamentale as a free attempt before the scheduled time in your program, you must also register for this using the appropriate form at the Examination Office.

If you wish to take a second module of the Studium Fundamentale as an additional subject, it is not possible to be registered for the exam by the Examination Office. You will participate in the selected additional subject as usual and receive a certificate of participation upon obtaining your degree.

Withdrawal from an Exam:

Withdrawal from an exam must be submitted to the Examination Office via the form by the deadline marked“Last Day to Withdraw from an Exam.”

Reporting Sickness:

If you are unable to take the exam due to illness, please report your illness using the form (link to follow). Please note that the deadline for submitting supporting documentation, such as a doctor’s note, cannot be extended .

Failing the Exam:

If you fail the exam, please contact studiumfundamentale@hszg.de to find out as soon as possible whether a re-sit will be offered during the retake period. If no re-sit exam is offered, or if you do not wish to take it, you must use the form to deregister from the re-sit with the Examination Office.

If the course you took is offered again the following year, you may also take the re-sit exam then. A re-sit exam outside the designated period for you can only be taken after registering via the form with the Examination Office.

If you wish to take a different course after failing the exam, this is not a problem, as there is no requirement to remain in the same course. In this case, please ensure that there are no unintended delays in your academic progress.

A second re-sit can only be approved upon request.

Please pay particular attention to the Examination Office’s information regarding the one-year deadline, and if you have any questions about exam administration, contact the appropriate service address in a timely manner at pruefungsamt_ZI@hszg.de or pruefungsamt_GR@hszg.de.
