From abroad to Hamburg

After your stay

After an unforgettable stay at the University of Hamburg, the follow-up phase begins. On this page you will find helpful information for organizing your return, clarifying the recognition of your academic achievements and integrating the experience you have gained into your further academic and professional career. Please clarify all open questions at the Erasmus Office of the Faculty of Humanities before your departure and have your Confirmation of Departure signed.

Please submit your Confirmation of Departure (or Confirmation of Attendance) to the Erasmus Office GW in person or by email at the earliest 5 days before your departure from Hamburg. If submitting by email, please also send proof of your departure date (e. g. flight or train ticket). We will then sign the document immediately so that you can submit it to your home university promptly.

The Erasmus Office of the Faculty of Humanities requires the following documents to issue your Transcript of Records:

  • Course list
  • Erasmus course certificates

Course list:

Please state on the course list (provided by the Erasmus Office GW) all course titles (with course number) that you have attended and that should appear on your Transcript of Records. Write the course titles in the language (German or English) in which you want your transcript to be issued and send this PDF document to: erasmus.gw"AT"uni-hamburg.de. 

Erasmus course certificates:

Please complete the upper part of the course certificates yourself (“Erasmus ourse certificate” > the document template is provided by the Erasmus Office GW) and send them via email to the lecturers of the courses you attended during the semester.
 
After completing your coursework and receiving the course certificates completed, signed and stamped by the lecturers, please send them to the Erasmus Office GW vie email so that we can prepare your Transcript of Records.

Important note for language courses at the University Language Center:

For the language courses of the Language Center, we need a screenshot from your STiNE account in the desktop view ("Study results/ course results/exam results").

The following must be visible on the screenshot:

  • your name and/or your matriculation number
  • course number and course title
  • your grade and ECTS

The Language Center does not issue additional written certificates! (Erasmus course certificates are NOT valid for courses at the Language Center).

Please simply send us your screenshot as an attachment via email.

We need about three weeks to create the transcript of records – so please submit all certificates as soon as you receive them.
