Deviations in study and examination regulations during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic 2021

For Information on the currently adapted regulations regarding study and admission requirements, courses, public events and examinations please note the Statutes on deviations in study and examination regulations during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic 2021.

In a recent decree, the Hessian state government has regulated that the individual standard period of study for all students enrolled in the summer semester 2020 and/or the winter semester 2020/2021 will be extended by one semester in each case. BAföG recipients are thus entitled to funding for one or two additional semesters.

Please also note the current information on the central Corona-FAQ of the university.

Students who fail a non-repeatable examination (last examination attempt) in this semester or in the summer semester 2021 will be granted one additional examination attempt - unless the failure is due to attempted cheating. Students who have failed such a last examination attempt in the summer semester 2020 may apply for another examination attempt. The application must be submitted to the university by 31.03.2021.
