Only one free attempt is available per module. It does not include one free attempt per examination period. It only applies to examinations which, according to the study plan, belong to the regular semester or to one of the previous semesters. If you use the free attempt, the examination is considered not to be taken. The free attempt can be used in the next examination period, which takes place from January to March 2021. It does not matter whether the examination is taken in the first, second or third attempt.

The prerequisite for using the free attempt in a module is that you are registered for the examination, take the examination (appear in the lecture hall and completing the examination cover sheet in full) and have worked out assessable solutions that correspond to at least half of the scope that would have had to be worked on to pass the examination. In addition, you can only use the free attempt if you do not pass the examination and there is no attempt at deception or improvement.

Please note that the regulations regarding registration and deregistration and withdrawal from examinations still apply without restriction.

If you take an examination and notice before the end of the examination that you wish to use the free attempt, you must remain seated until the end of the examination. Only by doing so can we ensure that the examination is conducted in an orderly and coronahygiene-compliant manner.

The exact regulation (§ 5 (10)) as well as other amendments of the examination regulations that might be important for you, can be found here. If you have any questions about the changes, please contact our Academic Counselling Service.

ILIAS is the platform for most online offers. Please make sure you're registered in Campus for all modules you're going to take. You'll thereby have access to ILIAS as well.

They'll also decide what material will be available, depending on the course and technical possibilities.

All students doing their practical semester right now please directly contact the examination office for all questions regarding the cancellation or postponement of the practical semester.

All professors and staff members can be contacted by email.

Through § 10 (1) of the University Ordinance of 15 April 2020, the individualised standard period of study for current students was increased by one semester. Since the above-mentioned Amendment Ordinance came into force, the regulation also extends to the winter semester 2020/21. This means that the standard period of study for enrolled students will be increased by one semester for both the summer semester 2020 and the winter semester 2020/21. For students who were enrolled in both semesters, the increase thus amounts to two semesters. Due to § 14 of our Corona University Ordinance, the regulation also applies to students on leave of absence.

If you have any questions regarding the effect on BAföG, please contact BAföG - Studierendenwerk Aachen.

You will also be reminded what deadlines there are for certain tasks that  must/should be done and you will receive guidance so that you'll find  your way successfully.

Study groups

To facilitate networking in study we’ve founded a Facebook group: www.fhac.de/FB07/Lerngruppenfinder. Just become a member of that group and write a post if you are looking for a study group for a certain class or private tuition or if you are offering tuition yourself. It is a campaign from students for students.

#studyathome campaign 

Under the hashtag #studyathome we’ve started a campaign on our Instagram profile „fhaachen.wirtschaft“ to give you valuable tips on how to study at home. During the following weeks, Noelle from the Fresher's Helper Team will give you assistance on how to best organise your daily study from home.
