Ph.D. Registration at TU Berlin

Registration as a student in a foreign university is sometimes a tedious job. At Technical University Berlin it's no different. Enrollment is necessary for semester ticket and Eduraom details. City registration is not compulsory to proceed with the registration.

Documents required:
1. Letter of Acceptance: This is different from the one you got for the Scholarship application. This letter is obtained from Faculty of your studies. You need to submit Application as a Doctoral Candidate (Separate for all the Faculties) along with the letter of invitation by your PhD Supervisor. The application form might require the signature of your PhD Supervisor. Sometime it might take a week's processing time to try to submit it well before registration.
Attachments: PhD Proposal, Plan of your research work, CV, Copy of degree certificates (Originals are also required).

2. Declaration for PhD studies: This is a simple form common for all the faculties could be found here. You can simply download, fill and sign this form.
Attachments: Letter of Award, Insurance papers.

3. Online Application: Similar to all the institutes TU asks for your personal, educational and residential information. You can simply fill the form from here. Form can only be filled in Internet Explorer or Firefox

4. Fee payment receipt: Details of fees can be found here. For DAAD Scholarship holders the Verwaltungsgebühr (Administrative Fee) is pardoned. Once calculated you can pay fees at the institute main building (Ground Floor) fee payment kiosk.

5. Copy of passport, VISA and degree certificates (Originals are also required).

Reach Campus Centre with all these five documents and their attachments. In case of any doubts, don't wait for the email response from Campus center, directly reach them on Phone. Better to reach Campus center in Morning at least 30 minutes before the opening time to avoid long waiting.

After successful submission, you should receive few letters:
1. Matriculation Confirmation with Provisional semester ticket: which can be used for public transport
2. tubIT registration details (via email): With the instructions you can register and get a tu-mail ID, same can be used to access eduroam. You will also be asked to upload a photo, which will be used in the student ID card.
3. Semester Ticket
4. Student ID card (also called campus card)
