Exmatriculation

You can request for exmatriculation anytime online via the FranCa portal for students.

Possible reasons for exmatriculation:

  • Withdrawal from enrollment/re-enrollment
  • Interruption/discontinuation of studies
  • Change of university before re-enrollment
  • Change of university after the start of the lectures (at the latest by 30.04. for the summer semester/ 31.10. for the winter semester)
  • Other reasons

The exmatriculation is usually effective as of the end of the ongoing semester (for the summer semester by 30.09/ for the winter semester by 31.03). The student status is valid until the end of the semester.

It is also possible to exmatriculate on specific date of your choice. Please note that your student status expires on this date and that this will have financial and insurance implications (e.g. health insurance, Bafög, child benefit, visa status).

The exmatriculation ex officio is carried out by the university.

Possible reasons for an exmatriculation ex officio:

  • Outstanding fees after the re-registration deadline
  • Late payment of health insurance contributions
  • Lack of proof of insurance status
  • Loss of the examination entitlement
