Examinations

Must I register for lectures and exams?

There is a registration via ZEuS at the beginning of each lecture period which e.g. gives you access to materials in ILIAS. The binding registration for exams takes place later during the lecture period via ZEuS again. Some exceptions concern courses like seminars (you'll be informed about it when registering for the respective courses). Regarding the possibilities to de-register, you'll be informed via email at the start of the registration period (Depart. of Economics) or via the website (Depart. of Mathematics).

What happens if I fail an attempt at an exam?

For every exam there is a re-sit exam. Please register for it via ZEuS.

If you fail the re-sit too, you can apply for a second re-sit. You can find the respective rules in your examination regulations.

If your examination regulations are those from 2023, please be aware that your application for a second re-sit has to be submitted two month after the grades where published latest!

What should I do if I am ill on the day of the exam?

Please consult the exam administration website.

How do I calculate my final grade?

You can find the rules in your examination regulations. You may download your transcript via ZEuS. If you choose the version with verification code, the recipient will be able to prove it is an original transcript issued by the University of Konstanz.
