**Parent**: https://www.tuwien.at/en/studies/studying-at-tu-wien
There are several possibilities for the **automatic expiry**of admission:
1. If the studies are completed by **passing all examinations prescribed** in the curriculum, the admission expires on the date of the last examination.
2. If the ÖH fee and (if required) the tuition **fee are not paid, or not paid in full,** within the [admission deadline](https://www.tuwien.at/en/studies/admission/academic-calendar), the admission will also expire.
3. If you are **admitted to more than one Austrian university** and pay the ÖH fee there without explicitly [reporting the continuation](https://www.tuwien.at/en/studies/admission/students-union-fee-and-tuition-fee/continuation-of-studies) to TU Wien, the studies at TU Wien will be closed.
4. If you fail the last permissible repetition of an examination of the StEOP or another prescribed examination, the admission automatically expires. A renewed admission is not possible. The admission is also not possible for those degree programmes at TU Wien in which this examination is included as a compulsory course. However, the same study programme can be taken up at another Austrian university.
5. **For students with first-time admission to a bachelor's programme from WS 2022:** Admission also expires if the **minimum of 16 ECTS within the first two years** are not achieved in time. Re-admission to the bachelor's programme is possible after two academic years.
### Can I de-register from the programme and how do I do that?
Students have the option of discontinuing their study programme early and deregistering from their study programme. In the case of **foreseeable study inactivity**, students are also obliged to withdraw from their studies in a timely manner (cf. § 59 Abs. 2 Z 3 UG). Likewise, if you wish to **continue the same studies at another Austrian university**.
The termination of admission is documented by a leaving certificate. This certificate contains all examinations you have taken during your studies at TU Wien and their grades.
The de-registration is possible all year round and has to be done via [Jira](https://jira.it.tuwien.ac.at/servicedesk/customer/portal/21) or the [contact form](https://www.tuwien.at/en/tu-wien/organisation/central-divisions/admission-office/contact) with scanned student ID. For reasons of data security this cannot be processed via telephone.
### I have de-registered from my study programme / have not continued my studies. Can I re-enrol later?
Yes, you can resume the same degree programme at any time during an [admission period](https://www.tuwien.at/en/studies/admission/academic-calendar). The exams you have taken so far as well as your previous exam attempts in this study programme remain valid.
If you have interrupted your studies **for a longer time**, you must come in person to the Admission Office during [front office hours](https://www.tuwien.at/en/tu-wien/organisation/central-divisions/admission-office) to continue your studies, as you my need to be given a new student account. If you have interrupted your studies **for one semester**, you can report the continuation by via [Jira](https://jira.it.tuwien.ac.at/plugins/servlet/samlsso?redirectTo=%2F) or [contact form](https://www.tuwien.at/en/tu-wien/organisation/central-divisions/admission-office/contact). Please be sure to submit a scan of your student ID card and indicate the degree programme!
**Please note** that in case of a change of curriculum in the meantime, you can only start in the new curriculum! The recognition of examinations will then be done on the basis of the equivalence list in the dean's office.
