Take care of it in good time – rules for withdrawing from exams and taking leave of absence
(Article from the university newspaper uni’leben, issue 02/2010)
Students with a disability, chronic illness or not only temporary health impairment that makes it harder from them to complete pass/fail and graded assessments can submit a request for disadvantage compensation.
Disadvantage compensation aims to ensure that the pass/fail and graded assessments can be completed under appropriate conditions and with equal opportunities. Disadvantages that students with the above-mentioned impairments have in comparison to other students when completing pass/fail and graded assessments should be compensated for as far as possible. The requirements that are part of the examination’s performance profile may not be waived and there shall be no overcompensation. Measures to compensate for disadvantages must be determined individually in advance of the respective pass/fail or graded assessment.
Prerequisites for the granting of measures to compensate for disadvantages:
Examples of disadvantage compensation:
Form and content of the request:

You can obtain further information and advice on disadvantage compensation from the Representative for Students with a Disabilitiy/Chronic Illness of the University of Freiburg and from your examination office.
Your contact person at the Faculty of Biology is: Dr. Janina Kirsch | Coordinator of studies
