As far as I know, there are only occasional regulations at the universities concerning when a certain examination must be filed or a certain degree must be reached. There are recommendations at best.

So you can leave as much time as you want if you finance your studies yourself or have generous parents. It’s different when you get BAFöG. In this case, there are periods and only small margins to prove performance. BAFöG there is not ad kalendas graecas!

There’s nothing in my university’s exam regulations.

Funny. Actually, there should be something about it. With us the regulation was as follows:

  • In the first two semesters one has 2 trials per exam. If any examination in the first two semesters is not passed in the repetition attempt -> Exmatriculated. Sliding was therefore not possible at all. Who did not pass everything after two semesters was gone.
  • After that, the rule, rule period + 2 semesters (thus 8 semesters). Who is not finished after that -> Exmatriculated.

have heard that these should be rather “exercise” regulations, but any regulations will also exist with you. But you can only find out what they look like in your study program at your university.

This can vary according to the federal state and even according to the university. And I believe that such regulations are more of the exception.

If there is nothing in your exam order, then there is probably no maximum period of study and you can also do your Bachelor for 30 semesters.

However, note that on the one hand there is a subject-specific and a general test regulations. So this does not have to be the subject-specific one. On the other hand, there are federal states in which long-term tuition fees are levied from several semesters. This is also not in the examination regulations.

This depends on the examination regulations of the university/university.

My own university in the Bachelor would have set a maximum duration of 9 semesters. If they were exceeded, they had to make a request for a case of hardness in order to extend. Otherwise it would have been exmatricated. Nevertheless, I know an example of a person who dragged himself into the 12 semester.

On the other hand, at my master’s unit there was no. Here you could theoretically study forever.

This is usually not a problem. This is only problematic in universities or in a dual study where someone pays your tuition fees. At the Bafög this could also give problems from 6 semesters. But you’re not being exmatricated.

depends entirely on the university or the course of study. With us. It is therefore impossible to give a general answer.

Your regulations are rather the exception. For example, I don’t know anyone who has completed an MIND course in 8 semesters. Not usually studying is quite common. Just in my field.

Well, you know one before. This is an STEM study programme. If you have to, it is. At least for the (more small) minority that is still there after the first semesters.

Just ask as far as I know there is a maximum period you have time to study
