German as a Foreign Language.

Enrollment

Information for the German course registration

To register for a German language course you must already be enrolled as a JKU student and have an admission for studying (Zulassungsbescheid zum Studium). For the German course registration you will need your student ID number which you can find on your student ID card (JKU Card). For information about admission for a study program please contact the Admissions Office (admission(at)jku.at).

If you study at another Austrian university you can register at JKU as a co-registered student (Mitbeleger*in). For more information on application and admission please contact the Admissions Office (admission(at)jku.at) or visit www.jku.at/en/degree-programs/students/co-registered-students/, opens an external URL in a new window

If you have not registered for German courses before, you will have to be cleared for the course registration. To receive clearance, please send us a copy of your German certificate (not older than 2 years) to fachsprachen(at)jku.at as proof of your language proficiency.

 

Period of course registration: September 4th 2023, 07.00 until September 22nd 2023, 23.59 online in KUSSS (kusss.jku.at). As soon as the course is full, there is no further possibility of registration.

Choice of German courses: In KUSSS go to “course search“ and search for “German”.

Payment of the course fee: As soon as the courses are put in the shopping cart you need to pay the fee via the MUSSS-Onlineshop. You can find the link to the MUSSS-Onlineshop in KUSSS and “My registrations”.

          Only after the completion of payment is your place in the course secure.
          Places in the courses are assigned by order of payment.

          Method of payment: Online Banking (EPS), credit card or PayPal.

→ Beginning of courses: from Monday, October 9th 2023.

Changing courses after registration is not possible!

In case of problems, please contact us immediately.

ATTENTION: Do not forget that both the Austrian Student Union fee (ÖH-Beitrag; about € 20,-) and any applicable tuition fee (approx. € 380, -) must be paid every semester. If you do not pay the Student Union fee or tuition fee, the credits will not be shown on your transcript of records at the end of the semester.
