In certain situations, it is not easy to take care of studies and other commitments at the same time. Under certain conditions, you can register in advance for your courses so that you can be sure of securing a place in the courses you want and on the date you want. Entitled to priority registration are:

• Parents whose child/children has/have not yet reached twelve years of age
• People who are responsible for taking care of family members
• People who have a disability as per Book IX of the German Social Code (SGB IX)
• People who are pregnant (if they have notified Freie Universität that they will be going on maternity leave)

The institute council has decided that this group can be expanded to include Erasmus students and tutors in certain situations. In specific cases, part-time students and others can also be put into this group following an advising session with the Office of Academic Affairs for Biology on the individual student’s curriculum plan.

All students eligible for advance registration are encouraged to attend an advising session with the Office of Academic Affairs before the advance registration period concludes. After this deadline has passed you will no longer be eligible for advance registration.
