Re-registration

In order to continue with your studies in the next semester, you have to re-register. You request re-registration by paying the semester fee. On HohCampus you will find the semester fee for the corresponding semester.

If you are studying two degree programs at the University of Hohenheim at the same time, you only have to pay the semester fee once per semester.

Once your re-registration is complete, you can extend the validity period of your student identity card at the validation machines.

Please note: Since the summer semester 2025, your the Hohenheim student ID card is no longer automatically valid as a VVS ticket in the evenings and at weekends.You are no longer able to buy a StudiTicket from the VVS! Information on available tickets: www.vvs.de/tickets

When is the registration deadline?

Summer semester:15 February
Winter semester:15 August

This means that your semester contribution must have been received at the University of Hohenheim’s account by 15 February (for the following summer semester) or 15 August (for the following winter semester).

Late registrations (fees received starting on 16 Feb or 16 Aug) will be charged a service fee of €20.

Please also check over your contact details in HohCampus and, if necessary, update them so that we can easily contact you.

How to pay the student fee

You need to transfer the semester fee – € 174.50 for the winter semester 2025/26.

Information regarding the purpose, bank account details, and status of your transfer request is available on HohCampus under “Student Services > Payments.” Please be sure to state the transfer reference (Verwendungszweck) when transferring the fees, otherwise there will be delays in booking them to your account. The reference changes every semester!

Please also check on HohCampus whether your account has a credit balance. If yes, please transfer only the difference (exactly as indicated in HohCampus).

Allow approximately one week for the Cashier's Office to receive the fees. Please transfer your semester fee on time! You are then re-registered and can retrieve your confirmation of student status and validate your student ID.

Completing the degree

If you have completed all the coursework and examinations required for successful graduation in the current semester and have handed in your thesis and presented or defended it (if required), you no longer need to re-register for the following semester, even if the Examinations Office has not yet booked your graduation and/or you have not yet received your graduation documents. The reason for exmatriculation is then given as "Lack of re-registration/health insurance". It cannot be changed retroactively, unless the Examinations Office records that you concluded your degree in the current semester after all.

However, you have the option to re-register if you wish. However, if the Examinations Office then registers your degree in the current semester after all, the re-registration will be cancelled and you will be exmatriculated at the end of the semester.
