Registration, deregistration, withdrawal

Notes on registration

• If the last day of registration falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, registration ends on the next working day (§ 193 BGB).
• All students of the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences can register for examinations online via the Selma examination administration service. When using Selma (instructions in German / English), please note that you must first register for the module and can then register for the examination.
• Students who cannot register via Selma, please fill out this form and hand in the signed form to the Examination Office in good time (!) within the registration period.
• If youhave any other difficulties with the online registration (e.g. forgotten password, ZIH login incorrect, desired exam not available, etc.), please contact the Examination Office in good time before the end of the registration period!!!
• If you wish to register for additional examinations that are not part of your degree program, please complete this form by hand and submit it to the Examination Office.
• If compulsory elective modules/examinations from another degree program are to be taken for the WPF area of your own degree program, you must apply to the Examination Committee in advance. The form for this can be found on the Forms page. Please print it out and submit it to the Examination Office with your handwritten signature and module description during the examination registration period.
• Students with compensation for disadvantages should inform the relevant examiners of their registered examinations immediately after the end of registration about their compensation for disadvantages (extension of writing time, etc.) so that the special arrangement can be organized.
• The end of the registration period must be observed!
• Missed examination registration: After the end of the registration period, applications for subsequent examination registration will NOT be processed in accordance with the decisions of the Examination Committees, unless there are reasons for which the student is not responsible for missing the deadline. The Examination Office must be informed of the reasons. In this case, this form must be brought along!
• Please note! Students from other faculties should register via the Examination Office of their own faculty.

Notes on deregistration without consequences

• On 12.06.2024, the Senate decided to standardize the deregistration periods for (pre-)examinations as follows:

• The deregistration of examination performances at TU Dresden permitted by examination regulations is uniformly possible up to three working days before the examination date.
  The implementation of the above resolution will take effect from the winter semester 2024/25.

• Use the deregistration function in Selma.
• To cancel oral examinations without an examination date, an informal written request can be submitted to the Examination Office up to 3 working days before the examination date. The exact examination date must be confirmed by the examiner on the application.
• The following applies to semester-long portfolio examinations, project work, term papers and seminar papers: The end of registration is the end of deregistration.
• Calculation of deadlines for deregistration: Section 193 BGB defines which days count as working days. If the deregistration deadline falls on a Saturday, the next working day takes the place of such a day. The deadline is three working days before (!) the examination date.

Notes on withdrawing from examinations (e.g. illness)

Please use the form "Withdrawal from examinations" (mandatory!). Proof of inability to take an examination due to illness must be provided in the form of a medical certificate. It is recommended that you submit the form "Medical certificate of inability to take examinations" provided by TU Dresden. The original documents must be submitted to the Examination Office immediately (three working days) , preferably by post or via the mailbox at the Examination Office.

The relevant forms can also be found under Forms/Applications.

If you are unable to take an examination due to illness during the examination, you must inform the invigilators immediately and then the Examination Office. A public health officer must be consulted promptly and the withdrawal must be submitted to the Examination Office.
