Guide for new students - Summer 2024

13 While places in courses are assigned before the beginning of semester, you can register for examinations in the first six weeks of the lecture period. You can also cancel your registration again at any time during this period. You will receive a confirmation of registration on your University email address. It is a good idea to print the confirmation as a proof of registration for your records. Please contact the responsible examinations office to find out if you can make use of an extended registration period for examinations in your study programme. In the same way as ›My lectures‹, also ›My exams‹ being a central information source with a focus on exams. Also the menu item ›Overview of grades‹ works in a similar way. This section pools all entered results of your examinations, displays the credit points achieved to date, and calculates your current average (›Overview of grades‹). Under ›Certificate of Student Status‹, you can print or save any certificates as a PDF file for all semesters to date, including the current one after being re‐registered. For instance, you may need to send one to your health insurance provider or your scholarship provider. We recommend you to save the certificates every semester so that you may print them at a later date, e.g. after completing your study programme. International students who have to extend their residence permit should print the ›Certificate of Student Status for the Immigration Office‹. For more information about the the penultimate menu item »Information on Re-Registration, please refer to next chapter (Central contacts and support). In the menu item ›Personal data‹, your address and telephone number currently saved by the University are listed. If you move house, you should inform the Student Service Centre (SSZ) of your new address as soon as possible. It is important that the SSZ has your postal address and telephone number so that it may contact you—irrespective of what your official primary residence is. Under ›Help centre‹, you may find frequently asked questions regarding Friedolin, an introduction to this portal, and short videos explaining its most important features. If you cannot find an answer to your question on any of these pages, you can also contact the Help Centre by clicking on the link in Friedolin. Every semester, introductory courses on Friedolin for students are organized. For exact dates, please refer to Orientation Days above. We strongly recommend to attend these events.
