De-registration ends the study:

• upon application by the student,
• after successful completion of studies*,
• after definitive failure to pass an examination,
• in case of non-registration or incomplete re-registration,
• in the event of exceeding the deadline (standard period of study + maximum extension allowed by the Saxon Higher Education Act) or
• in the event of non-fulfilment of other registration obligations (health insurance membership, etc.).

*This date must be entered in a form (confirmation of de-registration/discharge declaration). The form can be obtained from your faculty. The date of de-registration can be:

• the day of defence as the last exam at HTW Dresden
• the end of the semester in which the examination took place
• or any day between defence and the end of the semester in which the last examination was taken.
