Then you can take part in a virtual lottery for the allocation of seminar places.
You can select a maximum of four events from the HoC event programme and register for them during the registration period (mid-April/mid-October). Personalised lots are then generated for the selected seminars.
During the lottery for the allocation of places (a few days after registration), it is possible that one or more of the lots will be drawn. In this case, participation in the corresponding seminar is guaranteed. You will be informed automatically by e-mail if you are accepted.
Please note: You must arrive on time for the seminar, otherwise your place will be forfeited and made available to other students as a wildcard.
If the lottery does not result in a seminar place, there are still options 2 and 3.
Then you can go to the HoC website to find out which seminars are not yet fully booked after the draw (or whether places are currently available in a seminar) and register for one of them. The remaining places are allocated on a first come, first served basis. Registration for the seminar will then be confirmed by e-mail and participation is guaranteed. Again, please note that you must be on time for the first date of the seminar, otherwise your place will be forfeited and made available to other students as a wildcard.
Then, in addition to the registration options described above (lottery and direct allocation of remaining places), there is also the wildcard option. This means that places that have not arrived (on time) or are still free at the start of the seminar will be allocated. You can simply turn up on time for the start of the seminar and, with a bit of luck, get a place in the seminar. If there are more wildcard applicants than free places at the start of the seminar, the free places will be allocated by lottery directly on site.
