Fre­quently asked ques­tions about ex­am ad­min­is­tra­tion for teach­ers/ex­am­iners

Where can I find ex­am­in­a­tion reg­u­la­tions?

The examination regulations and amendment statutes are published in the Official Notices of the Paderborn University (Verkündungsblatt).

Which examination regulations and amendment statutes apply to the respective degree programme can be found in PAUL under "Studium > Semesterverwaltung > Anmeldung zu Veranstaltungen" ? Screenshot below

When are the ex­am re­gis­tra­tion peri­ods?

Information on the university-wide and second examination registration phase (only in some teaching units: Chemistry, Computer Science, Mathematics, Media Studies, Physics, gff. also Sport and Home Economics) can be found on the PAUL info pages: Examination registration

What op­tions are there for with­draw­ing from ex­ams?

You can find information here on this page: Exam withdrawal

Do stu­dents have to be en­rolled when tak­ing ex­am­in­a­tions?

Yes, according to the Higher Education Act of North Rhine-Westphalia (Hochschulgesetz NRW) and the applicable examination regulations, you must be registered when taking examinations, i.e. you must always be enrolled (in certain cases defined in the law, this also applies in the case of a leave of absence)! After exmatriculation, examinations may no longer be taken. This also applies to the submission of final papers and any other final performances (such as lectures or similar). Always ask to see the student ID valid for the current semester in conjunction with a photo ID.

Do stu­dents have to stay en­rolled un­til a per­form­ance has been as­sessed?

No, you only need to be enrolled to be able to perform, e.g. on the day of an examination or during the processing period of the thesis, if applicable including a presentation or colloquium.

? It is not necessary to be enrolled to receive assessments.

However, if you are not sure whether you have passed the examination, you should remain enrolled, as this is the only way to repeat the examination if necessary.

Where can stu­dents sub­mit a thes­is?

Information on submitting theses can be found in the letter of admission (PDF in PAUL) and also on this page. The submission is possible until midnight of the submission date (deadline) in electronic form (via UniMail to the ZPS and the assessor) or in bound form (at the gatekeeper).

As a rule, the student has not registered for the examination in PAUL. In this case, please contact the administration of the degree programme the student is studying.

Only selected titles are permitted in PAUL, which must be deposited in this way in the IMT service portal.
