Term dates

The academic year is divided into a winter and summer semester. There are no course-free periods in the traditional sense at the University for Continuing Education Krems, as the continuing education (study) programs are generally designed to be studied alongside work commitments and take place in module blocks. You can find the exact dates for the respective continuing education (study) programs on the individual study pages.

Winter semester 2024

For the further course of studies, a notice is required from the 2nd semester onwards. Within the duration of studies stipulated in the curriculum, this takes place by payment of the continuing education tuition fee. Please see your invoice for terms of payment.

If you do not complete your studies within the planned duration of studies according to the curriculum (based on the part-time version), you will receive a request for payment of the continuing education tuition fee from the Service Center for Students each subsequent semester at the beginning of the continuation registration period, published in the Bulletin No. 70 of 20 October 2020. This message will be sent to your UWK e-mail address (vorname.nachname@edu.donau-uni.ac.at).

You will find your current payment information in your UWKonline account under the menu item "Registration Status and Participation Fee". By payment, you register continuation of your studies for the next semester.

In the case of multiple studies, it is imperative to quote the relevant study code to ensure correct allocation of the payment.

Once your payment has been booked, the status for this semester will change to "registered" in your student account (UWKonline). In the "Enrolment documents" section, you will then be able to access the record of studies, confirmation of registration and confirmation of academic semesters. The student ticket for your student ID card will be sent to you by post.

Please note that continuation of your studies will only be possible after timely payment of the full amount. Unfortunately, payments that are not made in a timely manner or in full as prescribed cannot be considered – you will lose your admission to study!

If you successfully complete your studies by the end of the continuation registration period, a continuation registration (payment) for the following semester is not required!

Students who have paid the Students' Union fee at another Austrian university can request a refund from the Students' Union.
