Course Credit from Abroad
Course Credit from Abroad
If you would like credit for individual courses studied abroad, then please be aware of the following:
Applying for course credit / ECTS for classes taken abroad is a separate procedure to getting general credit for having gone abroad. You will ultimately have to submit the application for credit to the Prüfungsamt directly – see here for further instructions.
- If you have a signed non-binding learning agreement, and nothing about this has changed, you can submit your documents (transcript of records, details of course assessment, completed assignments as appropriate) directly to the Prüfungsamt without consulting Ms Freede.
- Please include the learning agreement with your other paperwork!
- If your credit request involves a Teilmodulanrechnung (for example for the modules ang311 or ang900), please make an appointment with Ms Freede before contacting the Prüfungsamt, as incomplete module grades cannot be processed.
- If you didn’t complete a learning agreement in advance, or ended up taking different courses during your time abroad, then please make an appointment with Ms Freede before submitting your paperwork to the Prüfungsamt.

NOTE:
The general principle of credit transfer is that you should make sure there are "no substantial differences" between the course content and assessment in the courses you study abroad and the Oldenburg courses/modules for which you would like to receive credit.
