Semester fee refunds

In principle, the semester fee can not be refunded after a registration or re-registration. It also can not be partially refunded if a student was removed from the register over the course of a semester.

A refund of the semester fee can only be authorised in exceptional cases and will be handled by the Studentenwerk Freiberg. Exceptional cases may be:

  • leave of absence
  • withdrawal from registration or re-registration within the first month of the semester
  • admission to an otherwise unaccessible course of study at another university through clearing within the first 6 weeks of the semester 

Apply for a refund of the semester fee

Please submit your application before the beginning of the semester. In the case of withdrawal from registration due to clearing please see the deadline above. In either case you will need to provide your certificate of registration with the application.
