Successful payment

Your payment has been successful once the fee has been received (see u:space > Financial matters > Tuition fee/Students' Union fee: "received on..."). Then you can print your study documents of the current semester via u:space > Personal matters > My documents.

 

Please note

  • The amount has to be paid correctly and at once, partial payment ist not possible. 
  • When paying the fee, you have to state your semester client code for the respective semester. You can find this code and all information regarding payment options in u:space > Financial matters > Tuition fee/Students' Union fee.
  • Pay only during the payment period of the respective semester. If you pay earlier, your fee might not be assigned to your account. We advise you to pay your fee as soon as possible after the start of the admission period so that the continuation of your studies is guaranteed.
  • If you have paid at another university, you have to re-enrol for your degree programme at the University of Vienna yourself before the end of the admission period. After that, your degree programme will be discontinued.
  • If you have paid at a university of applied sciences (Fachhochschule, FH) or a privat university, the notification of the payment of the Students' Union fee may be forwarded to the University of Vienna. However, not all universites of applied sciences or private universities do this. If the Students' Union fee has not been reported as "received" in u:space > Financial Matters > Tuition Fee/Students' Union Fee one week after it has been paid, you have to pay again at the University of Vienna (you can get your Students' Union fee once refunded by the Austrian Students' Union - ÖH). After the Students' Union fee has been reported as "received," you have to re-enrol for your degree programme at the University of Vienna yourself. Otherwise your degree programme will be discontinued after the end of the admission period.
