All students must re-register twice a year for the next semester in order to continue studying at FAU. This is done by transferring the semester fee.

For the upcoming winter semester, all students must re-register from July 1 to July 8, 2022 and transfer the semester fee for this purpose.

Guests can look forward to delicious food and drinks as well as good music. There will also be all kinds of activities at the initiatives' booths.
