FAQ Exams and Modules

Forms (z.B. exmatriculation, admission to final thesis, inability to take examinations, recognition of study and examination achievements...)

To earn credit points for a course students need to register for the exam on campusonline.

If your examiner/examination is not visible in the campusonline portal, please send an e-mail immediately to studiensekretariat@uni-ulm.de with a request to register for the examination and contact your coordinator.

Exam registrations for written exams have to be made at the latest five days before the exam date (e.g. exam date 21 February, last possible registration: 16 February). Late registrations are not possible. Deregistration is possible until the day before the exam.

  • If you fail to appear at an examination date and have not revoked your registration, you will be deemed to have failed the examination.
