Issue and distribution of the final graduation documents
It is a good tradition that once a semester, certificates and diploma are presented to graduates at a ceremony. The graduation documents are therefore only handed out at the graduation ceremony organized twice a year by the faculty.
Further information on the graduation ceremony and relevant dates can be found here.
The following regulations apply:
- Each graduate is assigned to the date of the bi-annual graduation ceremony of the Faculty of Management, Economics and Social Sciences depending on the receipt of the assessment of the last examination required to successfully complete the degree program at the Examinations Office. This assignment is made if this last grade has been received by the Examinations Office, usually up to four weeks before the graduation ceremony. The exact date can be found on the graduation ceremony page mentioned above.
- Upon receipt of the final grade, you will receive in a timely manner
- a certificate of completion in German and English,
- the final Transcript of Records (which is part of the Diploma Supplement) and
- the final Grading Table (also part of the Diploma Supplement).
The aforementioned documents will be digitally signed and made available to you in your student file in KLIPS so that you can download and use them directly. After creation, you will receive an automated message to your e-mail address. They will not be sent by post. - The graduation documents can be collected in person at the graduation ceremony. From the first working day after the graduation ceremony, graduation documents can be collected in person from the WiSo Student Service Point during opening hours. In both cases, please remember that you will need to show a valid ID!
- You also have the option of requesting that your final documents be sent to you by post. Please note that sending documents by post is at your own risk. Any final documents damaged or lost in the post cannot be reproduced in this form. Applications for postal delivery can be submitted from two weeks before the examination ceremony. The documents will be sent by registered mail from the first working day after the examination ceremony.
- Please use the application form provided here to apply for the mailing and enclose a copy of one of your photo IDs (ID card, driver's license, etc.) to avoid misuse. The application must be submitted in the original with a signature (not a scanned signature). Please send us both pages of the application as a single sheet, page 1 will be filed in your file, page 2 will be returned to you as the cover sheet of the cover letter.
