De-registration
You can terminate your affiliation with the RPTU at any time at your own request by de-registration.
On the date of de-registration, your student status ends and thus also all associated rights and obligations. This means that after de-registration you are no longer allowed to take any course work or examinations.
If you have paid the semester fee in full, you may use the D-Semesterticket until the end of the semester.
Here you will find a list of all the important points you need to consider at the end of your studies.
QIS und KLIPS temporarily unavailable
Please send us your application for de-registration. Once the system migration is complete, we will process your application as requested.
Please bear in mind that, due to the system migration, refunds may take longer than usual.
Important information
Retroactive de-registration is not possible.
Your RPTU account will be deactivated four weeks after de-registration and deleted four weeks later. You can find more information about this on the RHRZ page.
Your health insurance company will be informed about your de-registration by the RPTU.
You may no longer use your student ID card.
In case of a change of campus within the RPTU, please do not de-register, but apply via the application portal.
Automatic de-registration ("ex officio") only takes place at the end of the semester.
You will be automatically de-registered in the following cases:
- if you do not re-register for the next semester (no payment of the social contribution).
- if you have successfully completed your degree program and have been notified of your passing grade
- if you have lost your examination entitlement
You have the option of de-registering at any time during the semester (you can determine the date yourself, but retroactive de-registration is not possible).
Please complete the application form for de-registration and send it to us by email.
- Campus Kaiserslautern: ssc-kl[at]rptu.de
- Campus Landau: admission-ld[at]rptu.de
- Distance learning Kaiserslautern: fernstudium[at]uni-kl.de
Please settle any outstanding issues directly with the University Library and Student Services (Studierendenwerk) and, if necessary, with your department. This will help you to avoid later enquiries (e.g. about returning books, keys, etc.).
After the Examination Office has informed the Registration Office that your studies have ended, you will be contacted by the Registration Office.
You can then apply for de-registration until the end of the semester. In other case you will be de-registered to the end of the term.
Therefore, always make sure that you have a valid postal address. If you changed your address, please inform us via email about it or update it via KLIPS.
If you de-register on application by 30.04. or 31.10., you have the option of refunding the semester contribution (social contribution) you have already paid for the semester.
To do so, please use the application for refund and submit it by 30.04. or 31.10. at the latest.
Please note: If you de-register in the new semester, the subject or university semesters of the new semester remain valid.
Distance learning students please use this application form for refund.
