Academic Calendar

Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät | Dates & Deadlines

The academic year at Humboldt-Universität is divided into two semesters. The winter semester starts in the middle of October and ends at the end of February. The summer semester starts in the middle of April and ends in the middle of July.

During these periods courses and lectures will take place. After the end of the semesters the written exams take place. The time periods for examinations vary. So please plan for at least one additional month at Humboldt-Universität if you would like to participate in the examinations. Before the official start of the semester, some interesting events are organized in which you may wish to take part. Around two weeks before the official beginning of the semester the enrollment at the Humboldt-Universität takes place (you will receive a letter of acceptance with a specific date). Therefore you should plan to arrive in Berlin at least two weeks before the semester starts.
