What is re-registration and why do I have to re-register?

Re-registration confirms that you want to continue studying. In most cases, it is sufficient to pay the semester fee on time. 
Without confirmation, you’ll lose your place in the program.
Re-registration allows you to remain enrolled (i.e., officially registered).

Important:
  • 🔁 It must be done within the specified deadline for each semester.

  • 💶 Usually by transferring the semester fee.

  • 📝 Possibly combined with the fulfillment of “obligations.”

  • ❌ No re-registration = de-registration (exmatriculation): see as well -> What happens if I don't re-register?

    Once you have completed all your coursework and taken your final exam, you can no longer re-register unless you have been admitted to a subsequent degree program (e.g., master's program or Meisterschüler_in program).
