Examination Office of the Faculty of Humanities

Current notes

  • Please note: Flexnow will be out of service during the first week of January 2027!
    Due to technical updates, the Flexnow exam management system will be unavailable to examination offices, students, and departments from January 4 through January 8, 2027. For students, this means that the following will not be possible during this period:

    • Submission of digital coursework (including thesis submissions),
    • Registration for and withdrawal from examinations,
    • Preparation and verification of academic transcripts,
    • Using the electronic forms in eCampus.

    The Examination Office team would like to specifically remind students who are currently writing their final thesis at the Faculty of Humanities and who are planning to submit it in early January that this will not be possible during the period described above. We therefore recommend the following course of action:

    • If the deadline specified in the acceptance email allows for this and a later submission date is not a problem for you, please do not submit your thesis until after 8 January 2027. Please note, however, that if, for example, the binding deadline is 4 January 2027, this must of course not be exceeded!
    • If it is unavoidable that you have to submit your final dissertation between 4 January and 8 January 2027, you may upload it to a cloud folder provided by the Examination Office. In that case, please contact the Examination Office by 15 December at the latest. You will then be sent a link to the relevant cloud folder. Please also note that when using the cloud solution for your thesis, you must attach a Declaration of Independent Work. The date on which you upload your work to the cloud folder is recorded as the submission date. Due to the Flexnow system being taken offline, the Examination Office will remain closed until 8 January 2027; however, the member of staff responsible for your case will ensure that your thesis is forwarded to your examiners as soon as the Examination Office reopens on 11 January 2027. The Examination Office will then also upload the dissertation to your electronic student file and record the submission date in Flexnow. You will therefore not receive a confirmation of submission until 11 January 2027 at the earliest.

  • We, the Examination Office team, will advise you by telephone and e-mail. You will find details of the telephone consultation hours and the e-mail addresses of the staff member responsible for your study programme on the German version of this page. You are also welcome to make an individual appointment for telephone counselling outside of our office hours. If you wish to have a counselling session in person or via audio-visual transmission, this can also be arranged individually.


Further notes

  • Please note the individual absences of the staff member responsible for you (i.e. your study programme) (see German version of this page).

  • Please keep in mind that it is sufficient if you submit applications from the Examination Office in digital form (see Applications, forms and information (B.A./M.A.)). Please simply send the file as a PDF or scan to the responsible member of the Examination Office staff. It is not necessary to have the signatures of the examiners on applications for admission to the thesis. To simplify the electronic application procedure, it is sufficient if you put the examiners in Cc when submitting the application.

  • Degree documents: The Examination Office will send you a digital version as soon as possible. This contains a verification code so that you can use it for job applications. The written version of the degree documents will be sent to you by post, unless you have specified on your certificate application that you wish to collect them in person.

  • Please also note the applicable regulations on the application for acknowledgment of examination components and for absence from the examination due to illness.

  • Please send proof of completion of compulsory study counselling, stating the exact dates of the examination(s) for which you wish to be registered, as a scan by e-mail to the member of staff in the Examination Office supervising the study programme in question.

  • If you have any questions about courses and registering for them on StudIP, please contact the respective lecturer or subject representative directly. If you have any questions about examinations, please contact the staff of the Examinations Office.

  • Students who have received a Master's admission or changed their Master's module package should contact the Master's Coordination if they have any questions regarding admission or module package approval.

  • The registration of module packages in FlexNow for students admitted to a Master's programme of the Faculty of Humanities for a winter semester takes place from mid-November, for admissions to a summer semester from mid-May. If you have any questions in this regard, please contact the Master's Coordination. In general: Master's students for whom the registration of their module package(s) is urgent can also contact the Examination Office staff member responsible for the main subject by e-mail. In this case, please send a scan of your admission letter.

  • If you want to submit a guest student application, please only send it by e-mail. Before submitting your application, please enquire in the department concerned whether the course you are applying for will take place at all and, if so, in what form.
