Students who are absolutely (!!!) dependent on a certain timetable can be given priority in the BA Social Woork. The following are recognized as compelling reasons:

• Compatibility of studies and family life (e.g. single parents with limited childcare options, extensive care responsibilities for relatives, etc.)
• Compatibility of studies and health (e.g. disability/impairment)
• Other cases of hardship.

Jobs and professional activities do not count as reasons.

Please only make use of this offer if it is absolutely necessary, and ensure that you observe the special deadlines. Late applications will not be considered. Places in priority registration are limited to 25% per course.

You will find the registration form  above. Please note the separate timeline and the video tutorial.

Yes, please always check the prerequisites for each module (see the sample study plans according to SPO 2008, or SPO 2021 ). 

Admission is organised so that there are no timetable overlaps. If this is not possible, try to find a suitable alternative course within the grace period and book directly if a place is available. Alternatively, you can also check the International Curriculum, as the English-language courses tend to be less popular.
Overlapping dates may occur if there are unavoidable changes to dates by the lecturers after the admission procedure.

If you cannot resolve any scheduling conflicts yourself, please contact Belegen-Beratung@avoid-unrequested-mailsash-berlin.eu with specific course details. Always state your name and student number the details of the overlaps (module, group, lecturer, and course number).

In the case of the Part 2 courses you should select the same group as in the previous semester. Any changes must be agreed with the lecturers in advance.

If you are assigned to the wrong course, deregister and register for the correct course if there is still space available.

If this this is not possible or if your preferred group is full, please email Belegen-Beratung@avoid-unrequested-mailsash-berlin.eu with specific details of thecourse. Always include your name, student number and the exact course details (module, group, lecturer and course number).

Please unsubscribe from the incorrect group immediately. You can deregister yourself as long as the deadline is open. Thank you!

If you are unable to do this, please email Belegen-Beratung@avoid-unrequested-mailsash-berlin.eu. Please always state your name and student number,  and the exact course  (module, group, lecturer, course number).

During the grace period, i.e. after the admission procedure, the following applies: As long as there is a place available in a group, you can register for it immediately. Please withdraw from the incorrect group and register in the correct one. You can do this as long as the grace period is still running.

Before attending the Professional English module you will take a placement test. This  test will give you an indication of your language level.

The Professional English module requires level B1. Students with a lower level (A1 or A2) must first complete the bridge course (with the exception of SPO 2008 students). All other students will take the course appropriate to their level (B1, B2 or C1).

If you feel that the determined level is not suitable for you, please contact the relevant teacher.

Students at native speaker level (C2) or those with further questions or problems, should email the module coordinator Frances Kregler: kregler@avoid-unrequested-mails ash-berlin.eu

Courses on the International Curriculum (IC) are taught in a foreign language, primarily in English. The courses offered vary each semester and are listed in the course catalogue. The Non-German-language courses  primarily address topics of international relevance to social work.

You are welcome to take one or more of these IC courses, as they tend to be less popular. If you choose a foreign-language option, it is assessed in the same way as the German-language option (you only have to attend ONE of the two options, either in German OR in a foreign language).

A course can be repeated. However, bear in mind that capacities are only calculated for one semester, so you may be preventing others from participating. Therefore, try to complete the course within two attempts at most.

Some students have received their admission documents late or have missed the course booking deadline due to other circumstances. Please read up thoroughly on the degree programme website thoroughly and try to book your courses (see the registration instructions and video tutorial). If there are still a few places left, book directly. If you have any further questions about the booking process, please email Belegen-Beratung@avoid-unrequested-mailsash-berlin.eu

Teaching on the BA Social Work programme usually takes place in person at ASH. Online teaching is the exception. You can find out whether a course is taught in person or online in the course descriptions in LSF (and, after admission, in the Moodle course).
