Re-registration for the semester
Students who are enrolled at HafenCity Universität Hamburg (HCU) have to re-register every semester. The re-registration involves paying your semester contribution on time.
At the beginning of the re-registration period, you will receive a semester contribution notification for the following semester as a download to your ahoi Account. The re-registration period begins approximately two months before the start of the following semester.
The periods for paying the semester contribution end
- on 1st October for the winter semester
- on 1st April for the summer semester
A re-registration for continuing your studies is only possible when the semester contribution has been paid fully and in due time to the HCU bank account. The validation of your HCU-Card is only possible one day after the online semester documents have been updated to your ahoi account.
Further information about the payment (processing time at the bank, transfers from foreign bank accounts etc.) can be found on the semester contribution notification.
Late re-registration
Should you intend to continue your studies but you missed the re-registration period, a late re-registration is possible.
The deadlines for outstanding payments within the late re-registration period end
- on 21st October for the winter semester
- on 21st April for the summer semester
There has been set a fee of 30,00 EUR for the late re-registration according to the Fee Regulation Scheme for Administration and Utilisation Fees.
If you re-register during the late re-registration period, you will receive a notification of the fee at your ahoi account after the end of the late re-registration period. This will contain detailed information on how to pay the fee (payment deadline, bank details, reason for payment, etc.).
Should we not receive the mentioned fee within the payment deadline, you will be officially de-registered from HCU University.
