Deadlines for repeat examinations

If you fail an examination, you must

– for semi-annual examinations in the next semester
– for annual examinations in the semester after next

independently re-register for the examination in the respective examination registration phase via Jogustine.

Under no circumstances is there an “automatic” registration by the Examination Office.

IMPORTANT:
If you miss these deadlines, the missed repeat examination is deemed to have been taken in accordance with Section 18 Para. 4 sentence 3 i.V.m. § 5 para. 8 sentence 1 of the regulations for the examination in the two-subject Bachelor’s degree program of Departments 02, 05 and 07 .

If you are ill on your examination date, please print out the certificate template and have it completed by your doctor. Please remember that you must go to the doctor no later than the day on which the examination takes place. Please send the certificate by e-mail to: PruefungsamtFB02@uni-mainz.de. Get well soon!

IMPORTANT: Please submit certificates for the module examinations in Sport and Sport Science directly to the study office of the Institute of Sport Science!

Inspection requests

Requests to inspect written examinations and assignments must generally be submitted to the office of the lecturer responsible.

Exam withdrawal/withdrawal Bachelor and Master students

Please note that independent exam deregistration in Jogustine is only possible during the exam registration phase.

See § 11 para. 4 of the regulations for examinations in the two-subject Bachelor’s degree program of Departments 02, 05 and 07:
“Timely and binding registration is required for participation in module examinations and partial module examinations.”
“The examination and registration deadlines are announced at the beginning of the semester. After the registration deadline, withdrawal is only possible in justified individual cases.”

You can make an appointment for consultation hours at the central examination office of Faculty 02 here. This is primarily for issuing certificates. You do not need an appointment to register your thesis, this is still possible by e-mail. Consultation hours are by appointment only . Although masks are no longer compulsory in the Georg Forster building, we ask that you continue to wear a mask during consultation hours.

To make an appointment, please enter your details in the calendar linked below.

If you are unable to keep your appointment, please cancel at least 30 minutes before your appointment! If you will be late, please inform us by phone or e-mail!

Electronic submission (by e-mail) of completed applications to the Examination Office is sufficient!

Explicit exam registration: You must register separately in Jogustine each semester for the exams you wish to take in that semester. Please note: You must repeat failed examinations in the following semester and register yourself to repeat the examination. There is no automatic registration!

When do I have to register? You must register within the examination registration deadlines. Please also note the times when the deadlines expire. Please register for examinations within the first few days of the deadline and do not wait until the last day. You can save the deadline as a reminder on your cell phone, for example.
You can find the deadlines for each semester here:
https://www.info.jogustine.uni-mainz.de/anmeldephasen/pruefungsanmeldephasen/

How do I have to register? You can find step-by-step instructions for exam registration on the Jogustine info page in the FAQ:

Where should I go if I have problems with exam registration in Jogustine? First you need to contact the Jogustine service by phone or web form:
http://www.info.jogustine.uni-mainz.de/804.php
Only if you cannot be helped there (!), please send an email to pruefungsamtfb02@uni-mainz.de within the registration deadline with a precise list of the examinations for which you would like to register (B.A. or B.Ed.?, core or minor subject?, which module?). If the e-mail arrives within the deadline, it is considered to be a timely exam registration.

What happens if I miss the exam registration deadline? Then you will not be allowed to take the exam, i.e. you will not be allowed to take the exams or your term paper will not be graded.

In which cases can I register for the exam retrospectively? Subsequent registration is only possible in the case of illness evidenced by a medical certificate or in the case of proven special burdens in the private sphere during the entire examination registration period.

Reasons that do NOT justify a subsequent examination registration:

  • Operator error on the part of the student
  • Problems with the computer
  • Lost TANs or did not have TANs with you
  • Reporting problems with Jogustine
  • outside the deadline
  • Stay abroad during the examination registration phase
  • For family or private obligations
  • Professional activity or committee work
  • Private leave during the exam registration phase

What are academic achievements, module examinations, partial module examinations and cumulative module examinations?

  • Academic achievements are credits that you achieve in a current module, but which are not included in the final grade. As a rule, an academic achievement is assigned to a course and not to the entire module. It can be, for example, a presentation, a term paper, a practical exercise or a report. If coursework is to be completed, the form will be announced by the lecturer at the beginning of the course. It is important to note that it is not necessary to register for coursework via Jogustine; the grades are not usually listed in Jogustine either. If in doubt, ask the Examinations Office whether you need to register.
  • To Module examinations include Final module examinations, partial module examinations and cumulative examinations. They differ from coursework in that the grades of the module examinations are always included in the final grade. Important: You must register for each module examination via Jogustine in good time during the registration period, regardless of the type of examination (term paper, written examination, oral examination, etc.). If you do not register in time, you will not be allowed to take the examination. Please note that the examination registration phase is not to be confused with the course registration phase. Final module examinations are, as the name suggests, module examinations, which are usually taken at the end of a module and can in principle cover the learning material of the entire module. Module examinations are also a form of module examination. These are partial examinations (e.g. term papers or written examinations for a specific course) that are included in the final grade, but are written separately from and in addition to the final module examination, often even a semester before the actual final module examination. Cumulative examinations are parts of a final module examination that consists of several parts. For example, many modules require two written examinations at the end, both of which are included in the final grade. Cumulative examinations are therefore a sub-form of the partial module examination.

You can see which type of examination you have to take in a module in the subject-specific appendix of the examination regulations that applies to you.
