The "Certificate of Arrival" and the "Certificate of Departure" (sometimes also called Certificate of Attendance or Confirmation of Study Period) officially confirm the beginning and end of your study period in Cologne. Especially ERASMUS students need both certificates to get paid the full amount of their grant/scholarship.
You can have these certificates issued/signed, either at the International Office (SSC building, Universitätsstr. 22a) or at the Center for International Relations at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities (Robert-Koch-Str. 41).
Please note: We can only issue a "Certificate of Departure" (Confirmation of Study Period), if you hand in a "Certificate of Arrival" or some other proof of your date of arrival (e.g. flight tickets, rental contract with date etc.)!
Please also note that we will enter the date of signature as your date of departure!
