Students must register for examinations via campo. The registration function is only activated during a registration period.

You can find the exam dates on the German website.

The opening hours of the Examinations Office are from Monday to Thursday 9:00 am to 11:00 am and on Tuesday also from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

When handing in documents, please use the mail box at the mail room (room 1.309, next to the main entrance) in Lange Gasse.

Please hand in final theses to the Examination Office during normal opening hours.

If final papers are handed in at the post office, they must be packed in a sealed envelope.

Please arrange an appointment with your advisor beforehand either by e-mail or telephone. It is not usually necessary to attend in person.

Information and forms

  • Written examinations for Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes that are organised by the Examinations Office are held during the first 5 weeks of the semester break.
  • You may withdraw up to 3 working days (Monday to Friday) before the date of the examination without stating reasons. You can withdraw from an examination via the campo portal. If you do not withdraw before the deadline, if you do not attend the examination without a valid reason it will be considered failed.
  • You may withdraw from an examination at any time due to illness or other valid reasons. In this case you must submit an application for withdrawal (application for withdrawal due to illness) and provide suitable proof of the reason for withdrawal (e.g. a doctor’s certificate). A certificate confirming inability to work (a yellow slip titled Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung) is not sufficient. The certificate must include a description of the ailment and state how this affects your ability to perform to your full potential (ICD code not sufficient). It must be issued at the latest on the day of the examination. (Section 10 (3) and 4 BPOWISO and Section 10 (3) and (4) MPOWISO)

Announcement of examination dates:

The Examinations Office determines the dates for certain major examinations manually at the beginning of the semester. However, the dates for the majority of examinations cannot be determined until after the registration deadline when it is clear which students wish to take which examinations.

Due to the number of examinations, the large number of candidates and the fact that clashes must be avoided, it is not possible to schedule all examinations manually. Under consideration of the examination dates that have already been determined, the remaining examinations are scheduled after the registration deadline using specially designed software.

The dates for these examinations are usually determined one week, or two weeks at the latest, after the registration deadline and are published as soon as they are available (here and on campo).

Deadline for passing the Grundlagen- und Orientierungsprüfung (GOP)

All modules in the GOP must be passed by the end of the third subject semester at the latest. Some modules from the assessment phase are part of the GOP. The GOP consists of modules from the first two semesters worth 50 ECTS credits (or 30 ECTS for the degree programmes in Information Systems and Business Law).

Only completed modules from the assessment phase count. Examinations for GOP modules may only be resat once.

In the degree programmes in Business Studies, International Business Studies, International Economic Studies and Socioeconomics, the assessment phase consists of 60 ECTS credits, which means that 10 ECTS may be from modules that are not part of the GOP. For these 10 ECTS credits you may resit examinations twice and/or sit the examinations in a later semester.

Deadline for passing the Bachelor’s examination

The Bachelor’s examination must be passed by the end of the 8th subject semester at the latest.

Deadline extensions

After the deadlines for the GOP and the Bachelor’s examination, they are considered failed at the final attempt if not all components have been passed.

You may submit a written application for an extension of these deadlines to the Examinations Committee if there is a valid reason for which you are not responsible. Applications for extensions must be submitted to the Examinations Office and proof of the reasons must be provided.

If after the end of the 8th semester the only examinations that you still have to take are resit examinations, you may also apply for an extension. In this case, however, you do not need to re-register for the next semester.

Template: Application for an extension at the School of Business and Economics

Deadline for passing the Master’s examination

The Master’s examination must be passed by the end of the 6th subject semester at the latest.

Deadline extensions

After the deadline has passed, the examination counts as failed at the final attempt.

You may submit a written application for an extension of these deadlines to the Examinations Committee if there is a valid reason for which you are not responsible. Applications for extensions must be submitted to the Examinations Office and proof of the reasons must be provided.

If after the end of the 6th semester the only examinations that you still have to take are resit examinations, you must also apply for an extension. In this case, however, you do not need to re-register for the next semester.

Template: Application for an extension at the School of Business and Economics

For examination and course achievements from previous studies at another university or in a different subject and credits earned abroad (determined in the learning agreement) to be accredited, you must submit an application for accreditation.

The application forms are available under ‘Forms’.

  • For achievements gained before starting your current degree programme, please use the ‘Application for accreditation of examination and course achievements’. For those changing courses within FAU, all that is needed is usually this application and Appendix 1 (examination achievements).
  • If you would like to have achievements you obtained abroad as part of your current degree programme accredited, please use the form ‘Application for accreditation of credits earned abroad’.
  • The department is responsible for the accreditation of vhb (Virtual University of Bavaria) achievements as part of the cooperative core skills modules. The contact person is Ms. Simon at Prof. Dr. Wilbers’ Chair. You will find further information and the relevant form on the website of Quality Management at the School of Business and Economics.
