A prerequisite for the recognition of credits is that there are no significant differences between the skills acquired and those to be demonstrated. Credit recognition is regulated in theBavarian Higher Education Actand theGeneral Examination Regulations of OTH Regensburg (only available in German).

To assess whether credit transfer is an option for you, you should first read the Examination Regulations and the Module Handbook of the OTH programme for which you are considering applying for credit transfer (you can find both on theprogramme page) and compare them with the courses / modules you already completed. If you think that you have completed similar modules already, you can include them in the request for credit recognition (see below). If you have already taken and failed an exam at OTH Regensburg in a specific course or module, it is not possible to apply for credit transfer to that module. Any failed exams must be re-taken.

The request for credit recognition will be evaluated by the Examination Board of the programme in their next meeting. If you have any questions about the documents to be submitted, you can contact them directly. Normally the documents that are needed include transcript of records and module / course descriptions for all the courses you have completed and wish to request transfer for.  

Please use one of the following two forms:

1.   Application for credit transfer at the start of studies - for achievelements completed prior to starting a new programme at OTH Regensburg

• If you are applying for admission to a higher semester, the application for credit transfer must be submitted in the application portal of OTH Regensburg with the rest of the application documents (please check the deadlines). 
• If you are enrolled in the first semester, the application for credit transfer must be submitted to the Examinations and Internships Office after enrolment until no later than 10 days after the start of studies (i.e. 1 October / 15 March). 

If you have obtained any skills through professional or other competency-building activities, please attach the Crediting application for competencies obtained outside the university(only available in German).

2.   Application for credit transfer during your studies- for achievements completed during your studies at OTH Regensburg at another university (in Germany or abroad) 

You are welcome to contact thePsychological counseling of the Studentenwerk Niederbayern/Oberpfalz.

If you are unable to take an examination in the prescribed form due to a disability, academic accommodations will be granted insofar as this is necessary to create equal opportunities.

A request for academic accommodations for examinations due to disability or chronic illness must be made in writing. The application should be made at the latest when registering for the examinations.
For organizational reasons, it is important that you submit the application as early as possible (preferably close to the beginning of the semester). Please submit the application to the Examination Board (Prüfungsausschuss) by the exam registration deadline at the latest. This ensures that the faculties still have the opportunity to react accordingly in terms of organization during the examination planning phase. If you submit your application after the registration period has expired, it may not be possible (except in the case of acute illnesses) to realize the academic accommodations for the upcoming examination period.
