Changes and entries made by departments (start of grade entry - 'input in progress' and final grade release) trigger a notification in the Campus Portal. These notifications from the Campus Portal are also sent directly to the email address you have provided as your contact address. There are no longer notifications via Stud.IP regarding new examination results.

Changes and entries made by the examination office or the EXA management currently do not trigger a notification in the Campus Portal. The reason for this is the administrative function (and role) of the staff in the Campus Portal.

You can view your contact address in the campus portal under 'My Studies' > 'Self-service' > 'Contact details' tab. If you want to change your email address, please make the changes to the Study Correspondence Email Address.

As the system only calculates the grade average (grade distribution of the examination) per program of study and not for all participants overall, this feature has been deactivated. You cannot view a class grade distribution per examination.
