About Courses

Courses at the WiSo Faculty are allocated according to two different allocation procedures – the allocation procedure “WiSo” and the allocation procedure “Anmeldezeitpunkt UzK“. 

"Anmeldezeitpunkt UzK"

In courses with the allocation procedure “Anmeldezeitpunkt UzK” you will first be set on a so-called waiting list during the enrolment period. After the enrolment period you will definitely be assigned to the course.

Allocation Procedure "WiSo"

In courses using the allocation procedure “WiSo” the number of available places is limited. After the enrolment period the available places are assigned according to the criteria defined by the Ordnung zur Teilnahmebeschränkung (German only). 

You have the opportunity to prioritize courses which are part of the allocation procedure “WiSo” to raise the possibility of approval for very relevant or interesting courses. Further help for priorization you can find here. Furthermore, you can find information on the page "registration periods" as well as helpful advice regarding course registration here.

Course allocation procedure at the WiSo faculty

If you have chosen a course during one of the above mentioned enrollment periods, and wish to obtain a place in it, you will automatically go through a ranking process, for this specific course. Therefore, you will be assigned a number as follows:

Example: 05 0078 9 9998 9341

The first two digits (05) represent the current semester you are in (in this case you are in the 5th semester).

The following four digits (0078) represent the number of ECTS credits you have achieved so far.

The next digit shows whether the course you have chosen is relevant for your studies. "9" means that this is the case, while "6" means that the course is not part of your studies.

Next, you will see 4 digits that represent your personal prioritisation of this course and finally 4 digits that represent a lot, as they are randomly generated.

Based on this specific sequence of numbers, you will then be assigned a place on the list in the process of the ranking procedure, which will decide whether or not you will receive a seat. You can also find more information on the differences between ranking procedures on the website of the KlIPS 2.0 Support-Team.

Please note:

Registration for a course is not the same as registration for the exam! This is done separately and the dates vary depending on the type of course. Please consult the respective course to find out by when you have to register for the exam.
