Disenrollment

If you wish to leave the university and have not yet completed your studies, please apply for de-registration immediately. Otherwise you will be de-registered by Student Services at the end of the current semester due to lack of re-registration. Upon de-registration, students lose their membership of the university and thus all rights and obligations.

Please send us the completed application for de-registration.

If you have successfully completed your degree programme, you will be automatically de-registered by Student Services at the end of the semester in which you have completed your LAST examination. In this case, it is not necessary to apply for de-registration.

If you would like to be de-registered on the date of your last examination or at any other time during the current semester, please submit an application for de-registration.

Students cannot apply for de-registration on a retroactive date!

Exmatriculation is possible if you have completed ALL the coursework and examinations required for your successful graduation (incl. thesis and defence, if applicable) and are only waiting for the examination results or the degree certificate and diploma.

Please note that the examination date (graduation date) can be used by organisations outside the university (e.g. health insurance companies) as a basis for granting benefits, despite the different enrolment period.

A full refund of the semester fees is possible if you exmatriculate in good time before the start of the semester or at the latest one month after the start of lectures by handing in your student ID card with semester ticket. Otherwise, no refund is possible for a current semester.

According to the enrolment regulations of Leuphana University of Lüneburg, you are no longer entitled to attend courses, complete coursework and examinations after exmatriculation. Any credits earned after the date of de-registration will neither be recognised nor credited!

CURRENT NOTE

If you have any questions about exmatriculation that differ from the above-mentioned regulations, please contact the responsible administrative office or send an email to studierendenservice@leuphana.de (please ALWAYS state your matriculation number and degree programme in the email text).
