UNIcert® Examination

Registering for an examination

For all languages: Please use this registration form (opens in new tab) and, in addition, register for the UNIcert® module in TUCaN. You will find these modules in the UNIcert® Certificates section of the respective language in the Full Catalogue of Modules of the Language Resource Centre (SPZ). You may register for the UNIcert® examination in the winter semester from January 15th until one week before the respective first part of the examination and in the summer semester from June 15th until one week before the respective first part of the examination.

Please become familiar with the requirements for admission to the examination and hand in the form personally during the opening hours of the Office for Student Affairs.

Withdrawal from examination

You can withdraw your registration for examination any time up until one day prior to the respective examination at the latest. You must do so in writing by using this form (opens in new tab) . Any withdrawal submitted past the start of examination will not be considered.

Obtaining a UNIcert® certificate through cumulative course assessment

After successfully completing the number of courses required at a specific UNIcert® level, you have the option to obtain the UNIcert® certificate through the cumulation of their final grades. This is possible at the UNIcert® levels of Basis, I and II. If interested, please contact the Office for Student Affairs for more information.

Please submit the cumulative course assessment request (opens in new tab) and also register in TUCaN for the (cumulated) UNIcert® module. You will find this module in the respective language section of the Full Catalogue of Modules of the Language Resource Centre (SPZ), then “UNIcert® Certificates”.

Important: Should you decide to obtain the UNIcert® level of Basis via cumulative course assessment, you will not be able to use the same courses for UNIcert® I as well. In this case, you can only obtain the certificate at the UNIcert® level by examination.

Should you decide to cumulate, please note the following:
You cannot use the same courses for cumulative course assessment twice, i.e., once when cumulating on one Unicert®️ level and second to cumulate on another higher Unicert®️ level. For instance, if you cumulated courses for UNIcert®️ Basis, you can now obtain a UNIcert®️ I certificate only by examination but no longer by cumulative course assessment.
