As laid down in  § 11 Matriculation Regulations (ImmaO) of the TU Dresden, every student has to re-register for each semester in due time and form to continue his study. In the event that a student does not comply with this obligation, his registration is cancelled in accordance with § 13 ImmaO.

Re-registration is the timely payment of the semester fee as well as the study fee (as appropriate) due. The basis for the semester fee is provided by the Fee Regulations of the Dresden Student Union and the Student Council of the TU Dresden as well as the University Fees Ordinance. As the fee regulations are subject to constant change, the contribution currently payable is always announced only at the beginning of the re-registration period in question.

Upon receipt of the fee, your Semesterbogen (semester documents), including student ID and immatriculation certificate, for the coming semester will be printed out and sent to your current postal address registered in the Student Portal under [My Data]. Please ensure that your postal address stored there is always up-to-date.

Provided that you can present and substantiate a pertinent reason for leave of absence in accordance with § 12 ImmaO, you can submit an application for leave of absence instead of initiating the re-registration by payment of the fee. Please note that in the event of leave of absence, a lower semester fee may be payable. More information on the application form as well as the conditions for authorisation is available here.

If you are registered at TU Dresden as a "Nebenhörer" [=student who is registered  full-time at another higher education institution], you have to pay a minimum amount of 7.60 EUR. You can re-register within the re-registration period by
-transferring the semester fee of 7.60 EUR (indicate registration number)
- printing out the registration form for re-registration as a "Nebenhörer" from Selma and
- sending it together with your current registration certificate of the other institution of higher education to the Registration or International Office.

"Nebenhörer" can also purchase a semester ticket if they apply for it using the registration form (under "Organisation of Studies" and "Application Overview" in the student portal Selma). In this case, 196.60 EUR would have to be transferred.

For the winter semester, the semester documents are sent out starting in the middle/end of July; for the summer semester in the middle of February. Please note that the re-registration is deemed to be completed when the semester fee has been booked to the account. A period of 2 to 7 days may elapse until the payment is booked to the TUD account – starting from the day of initiating the payment. Please note that the semester documents will not be sent – despite correct receipt of payment, if other reasons preventing the re-registration exist. These can include the following:

• You have changed your health insurer and the new medical insurance certificate has not yet been received by the Immatriculation Office / International Academic Office.
• You have not complied with your obligations towards your health insurer (e.g. regular payment of contributions).
• You have been re-registered for a temporary period subject to conditions and have not yet presented certain documents or verifications required (e.g. Bachelor certificate).
• Although you have paid the reduced fee for a semester on leave, you have not, however, submitted an application for leave of absence.

During the main re-registration period, the Immatriculation Office requires about 2 weeks to print out and send off the semester documents. In this period, you are requested to refrain from making enquiries into the status of the delivery of the semester documents, since as a general rule the delivery will not ensue more quickly. In the event that – in spite of timely payment – the semester documents have still not been received after about 3 weeks, then it is recommended that you send an enquiry in this regard by email to our ServiceCentrumStudium.

In any case, the semester documents will be sent by post. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that the Immatriculation Office / International Academic Office know his current postal address before he initiates the re-registration payment. A change of address can be notified via the Student Portal via the [My data] and [Change of address] by the student concerned. Please note that the semester documents will be dispatched via Post Modern. In these cases, redirection orders submitted to Deutsche Post often do not have the desired effect.

For organisational reasons, collecting the new semester documents in person is not possible.

Eine Immatrikulation und damit auch eine Rückmeldung zum Semester ist i.d.R. erforderlich, wenn die Zulassung zu einer Prüfung noch aussteht. Das ist in der Regel der Fall, wenn

• zu einer Modulprüfung noch keine Anmeldung zu einer Prüfungsleistung erfolgte,
• das Thema für die Abschlussarbeit noch nicht ausgegeben wurde,
• im Fall eines verpflichtenden Kolloquiums oder einer Verteidigung das Ergebniss der Abschlussarbeit noch nicht feststeht.

Für die Wiederholung einer Prüfung bleibt die Zulassung bestehen, sodass dafür keine Immatrikulation/Rückmeldung erforderlich ist.

Genaueres bzw. ggf. bestehende Abweichungen von der Regel sind in § 4 der Prüfungsordnung des Studiengangs geregelt.

Besteht keine Immatrikulationspflicht mehr, können Sie sich zum Ende des Semesters durch Einreichen eines Exmatrikulationsantrages exmatrikulieren lassen oder warten, bis Sie von der Universität einen Bescheid über Ihre Exmatrikulation von Amts wegen erhalten, sofern Sie den Semesterbeitrag nicht überwiesen haben.

If you have not properly re-registered (or applied for leave of absence) before the deadline for re-registration, then you will be ex officio exmatriculated (de-registered) by the TU Dresden in accordance with § 13 Section 3 Clause 2 Matriculation Regulations. You will be notified of the exmatriculation in writing at your postal address.  The exmatriculation notification includes a legal remedy, which entitles you to lodge an objection in writing within a period of one month if you had pertinent reasons for the delayed re-registration.

Please note that in such cases, no further reminder – apart from a circular to the TUD email address of the students – will be sent.

If you or family members, who are included in the insurance, change your health insurer, you have to send a new health insurance certificate (in triplicate – as a rule) without delay to the Immatriculation Office / International Academic Office, including details of your matriculation number and your study course.

Your attention is drawn to the possibility that non-presentation of the new health insurance certificate, in accordance with § 13 Section 7 in conjunction with § 6 Section 4 Clause 3 ImmaO, can thereby result in premature ex officio exmatriculation, or in the non re-registration for the new semester.

More information on the student health insurance is available here.

Applications for reimbursement of the semester fee can be submitted to the Immatriculation Office / International Academic Office:

• if the exmatriculation ensues before the beginning of the semester and the semester fee has already been paid for this coming semester,
• if too much has been paid,
• if a new student withdraws from the study course before the beginning of the semester, but has already paid his semester fee.

Reimbursement can only ensue if all the details required in the application were specified and the associated documents required are included. This application can only be submitted by the student concerned! The application form is available in the Student Portal under [Applications].

Applications for reimbursement after the beginning of the semester are to be submitted directly to the Student Council and Student Union Dresden. Whether or to what extent these applications are then approved, is determined in accordance with the respective fee regulations.
