You can usually earn credit points for taking language courses at the Language Center. At the University of Basel, one credit point corresponds to thirty hours of learning. To earn credit points, you have to complete the required coursework and fulfill certain conditions. Detailed information can be found in the course announcement for each course.
All the required work for courses at the Language Center must be submitted by the end of the course. After the end of a course, all participants are informed whether they have passed or failed. If the required coursework has been successfully completed, the Language Center will transfer the number of earned credits directly to students’ credit accounts on Online Services at the end of January (fall semester) or the end of July (spring semester) for University of Basel students. Failed courses will not be reported. The faculties of the University of Basel determine the maximum number of credit points that can be awarded for courses at the Language Center as electives or complimentary courses in their study programs. The agreements with the faculties can be found below.
Students from other universities who want to receive credit points should contact the Language Center office.
The deadline for appeals is 1 September for the spring semester and 1 March for the fall semester. Appeals must be submitted in writing to info-sprachenzentrum@clutterunibas.ch.
Certificates of attendance for successfully completed courses will be automatically sent by e-mail.
