How to enrol

What is the enrolment deadline?

It is imperative that you observe the enrolment deadline when you enrol. You will find details of the enrolment deadline in the “Enrolment” section of your applicant account in the HEonline Campus Management System.

Your enrolment application with all documents listed in your account must have been received electronically at Esslingen University of Applied Sciences and the subscriptions and fees due must have been received on the account of the Landesoberkasse by this date.

If you are not able to submit certain documents by the enrolment deadline, please contact Student Services.

The enrolment deadline is a cut-off date; this means that when you miss this deadline, it is no longer possible to enrol and your place will be awarded to somebody else.

The mandatory semester fees and subscriptions are made up of the administration fee, the Student Services Organisation subscription and the Student Association subscription. You must have paid these fees and subscriptions by the enrolment deadline. 

In the “Enrolment” section of your applicant account in the HEonline Campus Management System you can see the fees and subscriptions you have to pay for your degree programme and when the enrolment deadline is. 

Please pay in good time

Please transfer the amount due to the bank account stated in your applicant account in good time. Please make sure that you complete the ‘Payment reference (Verwendungszweck)’ with the complete and correct information as stated in your account, since otherwise your payment to the Landesoberkasse cannot be assigned to our university (payments for all universities of applied sciences in Baden-Württemberg are made to the Landesoberkasse). Particularly important here is the complete ‘Payment reference’ including your student ID number, which you can likewise find in your applicant account.

You will only be enrolled when your payment has been received at the Landesoberkasse by the enrolment deadline. Please therefore ensure that the amount due is transferred in good time. 

Disabled students enrolled on the Applied Surface and Material Science programme can be partially exempt from the Student Services Organisation subscription.

When the severity of your disability entitles you to use local public transport for free, you can apply to have the portion of the subscription which covers the SemesterTicket reimbursed. Please pay the full Student Services Organisation subscription when you enrol/re-enrol and then submit an informal application for reimbursement to 球探比分网denwerk Ulm, James Franck-Ring 8, 89081 Ulm and include the following information: copy of your disability ID card, certificate of enrolment, bank statement to prove the semester fees and subscriptions have been paid, details of your bank account (for the money to be reimbursed).

Note: The partial exemption applies only to disabled students on the Applied Surface and Material Science programme, which is offered in cooperation with Aalen University of Applied Sciences in the Ostalb Mobil-Verkehrsverbund public transport network. The VVS Stuttgart no longer offers this exemption.

Proof of pre-degree practical experience

Further details can be found in the Guidelines for the pre-degree practical placement.

Students in Germany are required to have health insurance. Students at public or state-recognised universities must have health and nursing care insurance. This also applies to foreign students. Students must be insured from the first semester onwards as a rule, by the day they enrol at the latest.

The health insurance provider sends the health insurance confirmation to the university electronically via the so-called ESMV system. So please tell your health insurance provider that you wish to study at Esslingen University of Applied Sciences (you need to give them our ID number (Betriebsnummer: H0001762)). You can usually do this via your health insurance app or online. It is important that the confirmation includes your personal health insurance details.

When you have private health insurance or are insured under the statutory scheme of another EU state, you can apply to be exempt from the requirement to have this health insurance. Please contact any statutory health insurance provider so that it can inform Esslingen that you have private or foreign health insurance.

When you are from a non-EU country or do not have health insurance which is recognised in Germany, you must take out health insurance here in Germany.

Please note that Esslingen must have received notification of your health insurance status from your health insurance provider by the deadline (cut-off date). Cut-off date means: If the university does not have this information, you will not be able to enrol; if your enrolment is conditional, this will also expire with immediate effect and you will immediately be disenrolled ex officio.

ARE YOU ALREADY ENROLLED AT A DIFFERENT UNIVERSITY?

When you have already accepted a place at a different university, you must cancel this acceptance or disenrol there, since you may not be enrolled at two universities at the same time.

We cannot issue your student identity card without a passport photo. As part of the enrolment procedure on the HEonline Campus Management System, you will be requested to upload a current passport photo. This passport photo will be printed on your student identity card. You will then receive your ID card by post.

If you do not have a photo available as you are completing the enrolment procedure, you can also upload it afterwards, but by the start of lectures at the latest.
