Due to the high demand for various courses in the fitness, health and dance categories, the 3-course rule applies in these course categories. This means that a maximum of three courses per person can be booked from these course offerings in the current course program. Affected course offers contain explicit information in the course description that they are subject to the 3-course rule.
The beach volleyball courses only take place in the summer semester and during the summer holiday program. During the vacations, they start earlier than the rest of the HSP program.
The beach volleyball courts can be rented for certain time slots in the summer (from May). They must be booked again for the lecture-free period. Online booking is usually possible at the end of July.
Certificate of participation / stamp for health insurance
A certificate of participation or a stamp for health insurance companies can be obtained from the HSP service office during office hours or by individual appointment.
Please note: Certificates or stamps are only available at the end of the respective course period. Participation only in the vacation program is not sufficient to receive a stamp for a complete insurance year.

Compared to the semester program, there is no restriction on the number of courses that can be booked ("3-course rule" does not apply). However, for reasons of fairness, we would still ask you to only book the courses that you can actually participate in.

If a course is fully booked, you have the opportunity to join the waiting list for the corresponding course.
As soon as a spot becomes available, all persons on the waiting list will be contacted immediately and have another chance to book a spot. The "first-come-first-serve" principle applies.
