Reporting Illnesses

There may be an occasion when you are unable to participate in an examination due to illness.
In this case, you will need a doctor's statement attesting to the fact that you were incapacitated on the date of the exam. The statement must clearly state the following:

• Date of medical treatment
• Period of illness
• Name and seriousness of illness
• Doctor's personal seal

The attest (original) must be submitted to the Office of Examination Affairs not later than one week after the exam date. If you are unable to comply, you can send an e-mail (studium[at]uni-kl.de) or a fax (0631 - 205 3532) within the given time period in order to meet the time deadline. You can then send or present the original after agreeing to a new date with the responsible staff member.
