Graduation

Bachelor's and Master's students must apply for graduation in the “Study Progress & Graduation” app in the semester in which the degree programme is to be completed. The appication for graduation can be submitted as soon as the grades of the booked modules appear in the system.

When implementing the new degree process in the student portal, not all RWF regulations could be technically realized as intended.

• In the case of non-faculty modules, it is therefore no longer the case for degrees from HS22 onwards that these are automatically taken into account in chronological order. Students who have not completed all the credits required for the degree with faculty modules can therefore choose which non-faculty modules are credited to their degree.
• If not all the achievements required for the degree are completed with faculty modules and thus non-faculty modules are also considered for the degree, a faculty module may not be necessary to achieve the ECTS credit total required for the degree, so it is considered superfluous and will not be counted toward the degree.

Example: For the bachelor's degree, there are completed faculty modules with a total of 177 ECTS credits. This includes an elective module with a total of 3 ECTS credits. In addition, a non-faculty module with a total of 6 ECTS credits has been completed.
-> The crediting of the non-faculty module is required for the degree, but this makes the faculty elective module worth 3 ECTS credits superfluous because the creditable 180 ECTS credits required for the degree are achieved even without this module.
-> The faculty 3 ECTS module is not counted towards the degree.

Note: For faculty modules, the chronology still applies. In both the Bachelor's and Master's programs in Law, non-faculty study credits of up to 6 ECTS credits can be counted towards the degree if the ECTS credits required for the degree are not achieved through the eligible faculty modules.

Language certificates will be transmitted to the Faculty of Law automatically at the end of each semester and shown in your transcript of records. You do not need to do anything else.

Students in a Bachelor’s degree program enroll for the Master’s degree program. Please request a change of degree program/study program via "My Requests" in the student portal. In the event of not passing the Bachelor’s degree, students are automatically relegated to the Bachelor's degree program. The registration for graduation must be resubmitted in the following semester.

Students who are graduating and do not plan to continue studying at the University of Zurich must apply for withdrawal by March 15 or October 15 at the latest. Students who fail graduation must inform the Student Administration Office immediately to cancel the withdrawal, otherwise re-register to graduate in the following semester won't be possible.
