Registration for coursework and examinations
You must register for all coursework and examinations independently in unisono within the deadlines! Late registrations are no longer accepted.
In the case of scheduled examinations (written examinations, written tests), you can decide for yourself whether you want to take the second date as the first date. This does not entitle you to a retake date if you fail.

Withdrawal in case of illness
If you are unable to take part in a scheduled examination due to illness, you must notify the Examination Office of your withdrawal within 3 days of the examination date. Please submit the completed and signed form and a doctor's certificate to the Examination Office. Please note that we cannot retrieve any sick notes from your health insurance company.
Registration of a third attempt
Third attempts can only be registered via the Examination Office. Please submit the completed and signed form.
Repeat examinations that cannot be compensated for if they are ultimately failed are assessed by at least two examiners.
If you wish to withdraw from the registration, please contact the Examination Office by e-mail at least 7 days before the examination date. Once the withdrawal period has expired, you can only withdraw for a valid reason (e.g. illness).
Free attempts (from 1.10.2025)
(applies exclusively to PO 2020-1; PO 2021-1, PO 2022-1; PO 2023-1)
During your studies, you have the opportunity to have a failed module examination counted as a free attempt up to three times in the BA program and up to twice in the MA program. To do this, submit an informal application by e-mail to the Examination Office within four weeks of the announcement of the examination result in unisono, stating your matriculation number and the examination in question.
The Bachelor's or Master's thesis and (in the Master's program) the associated oral examination are exempt from this regulation.
Registration for credits for students with a degree abroad
If you are spending a semester abroad in Siegen, unfortunately you cannot register for coursework and examinations on your own. Please complete the form and send it to us during the registration period. As soon as we have completed the registration, we will confirm receipt by e-mail.
You can access your registrations in unisono at any time. You will be notified of any changes (e.g. grade entries) in unisono.
Course registration form
Use the form to list each course in which you wish to take credit(s) - including those from other Faculties. In addition to the title of the course, please enter the course number (e.g. 1SOWI0501V) as well as the name of the lecturer, the parallel group if applicable and the number of credit points. As a rule, you can earn 3 or 6 credit points per course.
Issuing the transcript of records
As soon as all credits have been recorded, please send a short e-mail to the Examination Office. We will prepare your transcript and forward it to the International Office as soon as possible. They will forward it to your home university and send you the original.
