Attaching Courses in USOSweb

Attaching courses in USOSweb is very important because the way a course is attached determines:

  • whether the course is included in the settlement of a specific stage and study programme,

  • whether the course grade is included in the stage GPA and final diploma GPA,

  • whether fees are charged for the course.

There are three possible scenarios for attaching courses in USOSweb:

1. Attaching a course to both a programme and a stage

By attaching a course to a specific programme and stage, the student declares that the course is included in the study plan for that programme and stage:

  • the course will be included in the settlement of that programme and stage,

  • the grade will be included in the GPA calculation,

  • upon completion, the course awards ECTS credits,

  • a fee will be charged for repeating the course.

2. Attaching a course only to a programme (without indicating a stage)

By attaching a course only to a programme, the student declares that the course is not included in the study plan of that programme:

  • upon completion, the course awards ECTS credits, but it will not be included in the settlement of any stage of that programme,

  • the student may choose not to include the grade in the GPA calculation (attachment type: Grade resignation),

  • a fee will be charged for repeating the course.

3. Not attaching a course to a programme

If a student does not attach a course to a programme, they declare that it is an extra (non-curricular) course exceeding the limit of additional courses allowed for that programme:

  • the course will not be included in the programme settlement,

  • the grade will not be included in the GPA calculation,

  • the course is subject to a fee.

Rules for Attaching Courses

  • Courses taken from higher stages than the one the student is currently enrolled in should be attached only to the programme.

  • Physical Education (PE) classes and language courses taken during the 1st or 2nd year of first-cycle (Bachelor’s) studies should be attached only to the programme (they will be attached to stages in the 3rd year).

  • Repeated courses should be attached to the stage of studies to which they belong, in accordance with the applicable study plan.
