I plan on switching to a new university. When should I inform the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg to remove me from the enrolment register?
You should submit the request form to be removed from the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg’s enrolment register after you have received a letter of admission from your new university. Up until this point the new university typically does not need to see a certificate verifying your removal from your former university’s enrolment register. The certificate will need to be submitted upon enrolment at the new university. The application must be submitted online on the myBTU-Portal under Service > Applications > Removal from the Register of Students.

What happens if I have already paid the Semester Fee for the next semester at the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg when I decide to switch to a new university?
The Studentenwerk and Student Council are responsible for refunding Semester Fees. Refund forms can be found at Studentenwerk and StuRa. Please fill out the form and send it to the appropriate address as directed on the form. The administrative fee of € 51.00 imposed by the Federal State of Brandenburg cannot be refunded.

Will the academic performances that I have achieved up until this point in my studies be recognized by the new university?
When switching universities you will need to look into all of the respective administrative formalities they require. This also applies to the transfer of recognition for your academic performances (e.g. examinations and courses). Only the new university is able to help you answer this question.
