Information for students
You can use PSSO to register for or deregister from examinations and print academic records at home, without contacting the Office of Student Services.
Examination administration
Use the examination services section (in PSSO called 'Administration of exams') to register for and deregister from an exam and to verify that you are properly registered for an exam. You also receive information on exams that you have registered for and have the option to print a transcript of records.
Student administration
Go to TH Köln's campus management (CaMS) system to update your contact information, get information on fees and payments or if you need a certificate of enrollment or BAFöG certificate.
Information for teaching staff and examiners
Manual for teaching staff and examiners
With PSSO, examiners can enter results of examinations and coursework into the examination adminstration system themselves and generate grade overview reports.
The following features are available:
1. Overview of exam registrations
Information such as the number of students currently registered for an exam can be helpful when preparing an exam. It helps determining what room size is required for written exams or how much time is needed for individual exams.
2. Entering grades and results
PSSO facilitates and accelerates the transmission of exam results. Once you have entered the grades into the system, you can generate a PDF file listing all grades/results and send it to the Office of Examination Services by email.
To do so, please use the document "Notenliste für das Prüfungsamt" (grade report for the examinations office) which is available in the "Grade listing" section. Your signature is not required and you do not need to submit a paper copy of the grade report.
