Graduation

Please submit the application for graduation to the Examinations Office as soon as you have successfully completed your last examination/study achievement. This can be, for example, the date of the Master's thesis defense, a written exam date, the submission of a term paper/protocol/report, etc.. The date of the application for graduation becomes the certificate date. It usually takes two to four weeks to issue the documents.

Please note:

The application for graduation is not the same as the application for de-registration. If you have any questions regarding de-registration, please contact the FU Berlin Student Service Center directly.
