There are two options:

1. Leave of absence

You can take a leave of absence from your studies for a certain period of time.

You can find more detailed information at: https://ssc.unileoben.ac.at/im-studium/beurlaubung

Fill out an application for a leave of absence and send it to us via e-mail at ssc(at)unileoben.ac.at. The application will then be reviewed by us, and you will be informed whether it has been approved.

Please note that in the event of a leave of absence, you must pay the ÖH contribution in order not to be deregistered. The leave of absence may also affect your family allowance, scholarships, semester ticket and social insurance. Please enquire about this at the authorities relevant to your situation.

2. Deregistration

You can have yourself deregistered. This means that you do not have to pay tuition fees or the ÖH contribution. Your MU-Online account will be blocked after deregistration.

Please note that if you would like to continue your studies at a later date:               

• You must be newly enrolled for the chosen field of study.
• You must accept the most up-to-date curriculum.

and can therefore no longer continue your studies in the old curriculum.

• In the new curriculum, you can have your previous examinations credited, as far as this is possible.

You can inform the graduation staff of your desired free electives when you submit the documentation for your degree.

Before graduation, only compulsory subjects or restricted electives are allocated.

In order to be able to fulfil students' wishes regarding a better average grade, the free electives are only allocated when the degree documentation is being processed.

The prerequisites for taking courses from the Master's programme early are as follows:

• The STEOP must be completed.
• At least 55% of the ECTS of the Bachelor's programme must have been successfully completed.

Procedure on MU-Online:

• Select your desired Master's programme via the "Offered courses" tile.
• Register for the course with "Free registration".
• When registering for the examination, enter "Early Master's work"

Changing degree programmes and curricula is only possible during the admission period. Please send us an e-mail to ssc(at)unileoben.ac.at.

Please note that a change will affect your registrations for courses and examinations. Make sure that you are not registered for any courses or examinations in your old degree programme.
