I cannot register in unisono!
-
The registration in unisono is only enabled during the exam registration period.
-
The mentor approval has not been submitted yet.
I have not registered in unisono before the deadline!
-
Unfortunately, we cannot register anyone after the deadline in case of a late registration. We need reliable numbers for room bookings at a certain point in time. If we were to make an exception, we would have to admit all latecomers as part of equal treatment. That, in turn, would make room bookings obsolete and lead to chaos
Can't you make an exception?
-
The examination offices are bound by the regulations. In certain individual cases (cases of hardship), exceptions are possible. However, written applications to the examination board are necessary for this in all cases.
But I did not know that!
-
You are obliged to inform yourself independently and continuously about the requirements of the examination regulations as well as implementation regulations and in particular dates and deadlines. This also applies to announcements, notices etc. of the examination office on our homepage or on the notice board.

Unfortunately, lack of knowledge is no reason for exceptions.
