Admission Degree Program

When receiving your notification of admission, you get one step closer to your desired degree at the University of Regensburg. Until you can actually use your student ID card and your university account, some steps need to be taken: firstly, accepting the offered place for your study program and secondly, enrolling.


1. Online enrollment form due until February 28, 2024

The online enrollment as well as the payment of the semester fee confirm that you are accepting your offered place for the study program and want to enroll. At this point, you will not receive your student ID yet.


Important indications:

  • The deadlines for this step will be written on the notification of admission (first page) and have to be kept. Otherwise, the UR will assume that you are not interested in accepting your offered study place.
  • If you are not able to transfer your payment in the designated period due to very important reasons, please contact the “Studierendenkanzlei“/ student office directly at application.international@ur.de
  • Transfer your semester fee before the deadline ends to avoid any delays. Please pay attention that the "purporse of payment" of the money transfer is exactly the same as the one given in your notification of admission. Otherwise, there can occur problems to match your payment and your request to enroll.
  • Health insurance status: If you do not yet have health insurance coverage in Germany, select "exempted" in the corresponding question in Campusportal. You then will have time to submit the insurance certificate until the end of March.

2. Online Enrollment until Febraury 28, 2024

At the end of the online enrollment application, you upload further documents and a photo for enrollment.

Enrolling is the last formal step on your way to start your studies. In this step, the “Studierendenkanzlei”/ student office will first check all of your documents and collect your data in your folder, and then assign you a “RZ-Account” to use all of the digital systems of the University Regensburg as well as creating your student ID card.

As soon as your enrollment has been successfully completed, you will see the status "enrolled" under "status" in the campus portal.


Which documents are needed? 

  • Proof of Payment
  • Health Insurance Certificate (will be sent by the insurance directly to the UR)
  • Picture for the ID

                 Proof of Payment

Please transfer your semester fee to the University Regensburg during the period of the online enrollment. The bank account information can be found on the notification of admission. We also need a proof of the transfer, for example an online banking document or a picture/ copy of the transfer slip.

 

Health Insurance Certificate

You can only enroll at the University of Regensburg when you are able to prove your health insurance with a “Krankenversicherungsbestätigung”/ health insurance certificate.

The healtch insurance certificate for enrollment must be submitted electronically by a German statutory health insurance company to the Studentenkanzlei. The exact name of the document is „Versicherungsbescheinigung für die (Immatrikulation an einer) Hochschule“. You must resquest the certificate from the health insurance company whilst you submitt all other enrollment documents.

The following documents will not be accepted:

  • Scan/ Copy of your EHIC-Card
  • Certificate of Membership of a Health Insurance
  • Conclusion of Contract Documents

We prepared a very detailed information sheet for this. Please make sure to read the information sheet before sending your documents to us. Starting March, you can find further information and explanations regarding the topic health insurance in the online course “Startklar” as well.


What happens, if the documents are not complete or formally correct?

The average processing time is 3 weeks.

If the “Studierendenkanzlei” / student office notices any missing or incorrect documents, you will receive a notification via email. Therefore, it is really important that you check your email account and its junk email folder regularly to make sure you do not miss any important emails.


I am taking the DSH exam at UR at the end of March. Do I also have to send in my documents by February 29th?

Yes!

Applicants who take the DSH exam on campus before the start of the semester (admission with the note "DSH-fehlt") send all other documents by the mentioned deadline. The exam results will be forwarded internally in time and the enrollment will be carried out without you having to report the results yourself.


3. Receiving your UR Card and Account

Once you have been successfully enrolled, you will see the status "enrolled" under Application Status in your Campusportal account.

Later, you will receive your student ID card via regular post at the address you entered during the application process (provided this address is in Germany and you completed the enrollment process successfully).

If you do not have an address in Germany yet, your student ID card will be kept until you tell us your new address after arriving in Germany. The access information for your digital UR account will be sent to you via email.
