However, a categorization is not necessary if a subject transfer is requested into the first semester of the newly chosen degree subject; the application is sufficient here.

    Transfer Procedure:

The Subject Advisory Service releases a semester recommendation according to the presented original documents about assessments and  examinations in the respective subject, the professional subject area or the Profession- or Economic-Teaching-Methodology. The form for the transfer recommendation can be found under downloads.

    2. Application to the Immatriculation Office
       The semester recommendation of the student advisory service are submitted with the application documents to the Immatriculation Office.
