In order to continue their studies at Osnabrück University, students must re-register each semester. Re-registration is done by transferring the re-registration fee to the account of Osnabrück University. The re-registration fee is made up of the semester fee plus any long-term fees (€ 500). The total amount applicable to you can be viewed at myUOS.de: "HISinOne" - "Mein Studium" - "Studienservice".
In addition to the semester fee, further special fees (€800) are due if you have reached the age of 60.
You are responsible for your re-registration - you will not receive a separate request or reminder. If you do not re-register on time, you will be exmatriculated in accordance with the provisions of the Lower Saxony Higher Education Act.
If you make the transfer on time, you can validate your Campuscard at the relevant offices for the following semester and thus extend its validity (use without interruption is guaranteed by the imprint of the current and the following semester). Certificates of enrolment and BAföG certificates can be printed out on myUOS.de in the "HISinOne" - "My studies" - "Student services" area.
