Exam registration:
You will be notified via OPAL when registration period begins.
- Winter semester: 2nd and 3rd calendar week (January)
- Summer semester: 25th to 27th calendar week (June/July)
Exam dates
- Examinations take place in the last week of the semester and the first two weeks of the core examination period.
What do you have to do?
- Register in selma within the registration period for the participation certificate (“Teilnahmeschein”). ➝ This is mandatory.
- If you would like to use your examination results for any elective or compulsory modules of your studies or for AQua points ➝ Then you must also (in addition to point 1) register for the examination in the affected system (e.g. selma or HISQIS). Please consider that the requirements might differ according to your degree programme. Please consult your examination office for the rules applicable to your course.
- The grades will be published in selma about six weeks after the exam.
- At the end of the semester, the participation certificate will be made available in selma (without signature and stamp). If you need a signed and stamped participation certificate to present to your examination office, please email the PDF of the certificate to the study organization (). A signed version will then be returned to you by email.
Detailed instructions on how to register for exams and further information (e.g. withdrawal from exam registration) can be found HERE (Information on Exam Registration).
Register for the language exam during the exam registration period (winter semester: 2nd + 3rd week of January / summer semester: 25th – 27th calendar weeks in June/July) in selma under exams register|deregister.
At the end of the semester, you will receive the participation certificate (without signature and stamp) for the language course you have passed under the menu item “Documents | Notices | Certificates” (“Dokumente | Bescheide | Bescheinigungen”).
For official documents (with signature and stamp) and certificates, please contact the LSK-TUDIAS study organization team directly (sprachen.zentrum@tu-dresden).
If the examinations office in your degree program still requires the original paper certificate (many of them do), you will need the participation certificate (“Teilnahmeschein”) to present to the examinations office of your degree program (“Prüfungsamt”). You must therefore register in selma and then print out the certificate if you have successfully passed the language exam.
You always have to register in selma for the participation certificate (“Teilnahmeschein”) and - if applicable - register a second time for the following combinations (may differ depending on your field of study):
- SELMA in the additional area and SELMA for an elective or compulsory module (if it is a module that is found within your study regulations)
- SELMA and HISQIS
