My studies at Leuphana College

If you are already studying at Leuphana University of Lüneburg and wish to continue your studies here, you must re-register. You must be enrolled in order to earn credits and take examinations.

Re-registration is only possible within the specified re-registration period. For the 

• summer semester in January/February and for the winter semester in
• winter semester in June/July.

The exact dates can be found on the information field of your student ID card. In addition, all enrolled students will receive an invitation to re-register by e-mail (only your Leuphana e-mail will be used here).

If you do not re-register on time by transferring the semester fee, you will receive a reminder to pay (current fee €15.00). If you do not re-register within the specified period, you will be de-registered.

Please be sure to state your matriculation number followed by your surname and first name when making the transfer. Please make sure that it is the matriculation number (7 digits), not an applicant number or an lg number. This makes it easier for us to allocate your application. You will only receive your student ID once the full fee has been received.

Please do not pay the fee due until you have been requested to do so by Student Services. This will be sent to your stud-leuphana e-mail address.

At the end of your studies

1. You complete your studies and re-registration is no longer necessary: Inform us by applying for de-registration, preferably during the re-registration period.
2. You only have to complete one examination (submission of the Bachelor's or Master's thesis or the examination interview is an examination) in the new semester and thus complete your studies: re-register and submit the application for de-registration within one month of the start of lectures at the latest, returning your student ID card. You will then receive a refund of the fees you have paid.

Further information can be found on the homepages of the schools.

Information about the certificate (only in German)

Application form for certificate

If you wish to leave the university and have not yet completed your studies, please apply for de-registration immediately. Otherwise you will be de-registered by Student Services at the end of the current semester due to lack of re-registration. Upon de-registration, students lose their membership of the university and thus all rights and obligations.

Please send us the completed application for de-registration.

If you have successfully completed your degree programme, you will be automatically de-registered by Student Services at the end of the semester in which you have completed your LAST examination. In this case, it is not necessary to apply for de-registration.

If you would like to be de-registered on the date of your last examination or at any other time during the current semester, please submit an application for de-registration.

Students cannot apply for de-registration on a retroactive date!

Exmatriculation is possible if you have completed ALL the coursework and examinations required for your successful graduation (incl. thesis and defence, if applicable) and are only waiting for the examination results or the degree certificate and diploma.

Please note that the examination date (graduation date) can be used by organisations outside the university (e.g. health insurance companies) as a basis for granting benefits, despite the different enrolment period.

A full refund of the semester fees is possible if you exmatriculate in good time before the start of the semester or at the latest one month after the start of lectures. Otherwise, no refund is possible for a current semester.

According to the enrolment regulations of Leuphana University of Lüneburg, you are no longer entitled to attend courses, complete coursework and examinations after exmatriculation. Any credits earned after the date of de-registration will neither be recognised nor credited!

CURRENT NOTE

If you have any questions about exmatriculation that differ from the above-mentioned regulations, please contact the responsible administrative office or send an email to studierendenservice@leuphana.de (please ALWAYS state your matriculation number and degree programme in the email text).
