Re-registration for the winter semester 2026/27 will take place in the following period:
01 June - 31 July 2026
The same dates apply for students who wish to take a leave of absence or intend to change degree programme and/or university.
The form is available here. The input fields can be filled in directly on the computer in Acrobat Reader (download; please do not fill in directly in the browser). Please print out the form and sign it. Then photograph or scan the signed form (e.g. with your smartphone) and send it by e-mail to ed.ellah-grub@gnudlemkceur.
Germany semester ticket (Deutschlandticket)
The ‘Deutschlandsemesterticket’ will also be available at BURG in the winter semester 2026/27. Like the semester ticket, it works according to the principle of solidarity, applies to all students and is therefore compulsory.
In addition to the semester fee of EUR 90 and the student body fee of EUR 8, an amount of EUR 226,8 will be requested when you re-register.
The student ID card is no longer valid as a ticket. The digital ticket is required. The ‘Studentenwerk’ will provide information on this on an ongoing basis.
A customised solution must be found for students without a smartphone. Creating the ticket manually will take more time, as no automated processes can be used upstream. Very long waiting times are to be expected at the HAVAG Service Centre Escalator. We expect a processing time of 3 working days.
All questions and answers about the Deutschlandsemesterticket can be found on the HAVAG website: www.havag.com/deutschlandsemesterticket.
Loss of student ID card
If you lose your student ID card, please pay a fee of EUR 10.30 at the post office at Neuwerk 7. The Office of Student Affairs will then contact the Computer Centre and let you know as soon as the new card is available. This can then be collected from the Student Administration Centre.
If there was a credit balance on your card, please take the new card to the Harzmensa card centre. There the credit can be transferred to the new card.
Payment of the semester fee
The semester fee is paid by direct debit as part of the re-registration process. This requires a basic direct debit mandate signed by the account holder. The direct debit is collected via existing mandates. The fee will be collected 7 days after receipt of the advance information. A new mandate must be created if the details change. Please contact the Enrolment Office for this.
If the amount due cannot be debited, e.g. due to insufficient funds in the account, a processing fee of EUR 10 and the chargeback fee of the respective bank will be charged.
Exemption from payment is possible in the case of a severe disability (semester ticket fee) or a leave of absence (full semester fee). Please contact the Enrolment Office ed.ellah-grub@najtsap .
In the event of proper de-registration or cancellation of enrolment before the start of the semester for which it was paid, the refund of the semester fee can be requested from the Enrolment Office by 31 October for the winter semester and 30 April for the summer semester at the latest.
If an application for exmatriculation is submitted during the current semester, HAVAG can refund the semester ticket fee on a pro rata basis. In this case, please contact the HAVAG Service Centre with the signed and stamped certificate of exmatriculation.
HAVAG is the sole point of contact for questions regarding the use and partial reimbursement of the semester fee.
The legal basis for the collection or reimbursement of the student union fee and the fee for the MDV semester ticket is the current version of the student union fee regulations.
Contact person for questions: Mrs Elena Pastjan, phone: +49(0)345-7751-536, ed.ellah-grub@najtsap .
Semester ticket (replaced by the Germany semester ticket in summer semester 2024)
The semester ticket was introduced at Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle in the 2017/18 winter semester. BURG students voted on this in a ballot and decided in favour by a large majority. As the semester ticket is based on the principle of solidarity, it applies to all students and is compulsory. From October 2017, students will be able to use the S-Bahn, train, tram and bus throughout the MDV area around the clock (Info MDV; Info MDV engl.)). The validated student ID serves as the ticket.
Information on the semester ticket can be found on the HAVAG and Studentenwerks' websites.
Extension of the standard period of study
For students who were enrolled in the winter semester 2021/22 and/or in the summer semester 2021 and/or in the winter semester 2020/21 and/or in the summer semester 2020, the standard period of study will be extended by one semester in each case.
This has an impact on BAföG payments in particular, which may be granted for longer. You can find out more details from the 'Studentenwerk'.
The individual standard period of study is shown on the enrolment certificates.
