Dear Students,

You may skip your tutorial presentation only for legitimate reasons. Examples of such reasons include being genuinely sick or having an official appointment with the Ausländerbehörde (ABH) that directly clashes with your tutorial time. Please note that personal commitments or a doctor’s appointment during the tutorial do not count as valid excuses.

If you are sick and unable to attend, you must send your tutor the official German sick note, the Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung (certificate of unfitness for work), and cc Prof. Klakow. Simply writing an email saying you are sick is not enough, the certificate must be attached, and it should be sent promptly.

Please remember that tutors are not responsible for following up on absences. It is your responsibility to provide the required documentation to avoid penalties for missing your presentation.

Best,
NNTI Team
