The Examination Board is in charge of, amongst other things, matters relating to examinations, recognition of academic achievements and applications for hardship relief in exceptional circumstances.

Members of the Examination Board:

  • Prof. Dr Uwe Werner (Chair)

Students may request compensation for disadvantages if they have a chronic illness or a disability which prevents them from sitting an examination performance in the prescribed form and/or duration, or allows them to do so only to a limited extent. The examination performance is then adapted through the use of technical aids, a different type of examination or an extended time limit (see Section 21(1) of the ABPO). Neither the content nor the level of difficulty of the examination changes as a result of compensation for disadvantages; only the conditions are modified to enable equal participation as far as possible.

Before you submit an application, please read the detailed information on compensation for disadvantages carefully!

Submit your application for compensation for disadvantages for the winter semester by 1 December and for the summer semester by 1 June. Applying for compensation for disadvantages retrospectively after an examination has taken place is excluded. If you need assistance with your application, please feel free to contact Corinna Steinebronn. Otherwise, the application, complete with appropriate evidence, should be submitted to Prof. Dr Uwe Werner ; he will decide on the application.

You can find all the relevant information, the application form and Ms Steinebronn’s contact details here under Compensation for disadvantages for examinations
