Notices are usually posted on the information board in the foyer of the Sports Institute (Building 40.40), on the 1st floor of the New Hall (Building 40.44) and in Hall 3 (Building 30.81).

Students and employees of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and its cooperation partners are eligible to participate (see Conditions of Participation - Eligibility).

Foreign students can also take part in our courses. Our course instructors do their best to facilitate communication in English.

You can find the explicit conditions of participation of the HSP here: https: //www.ifss.kit.edu/hochschulsport/Teilnahmebedingungen.php

Yes, you will receive a booking confirmation by email immediately after booking. You are then entitled to book courses.

If no course booking/participation was possible, the basic fee will be refunded (even at the end of the semester). To do this, you must send an email to hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu requesting a refund. You will then receive a refund form.

To do this, you need to send an email to hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu with a request to cancel the basic fee. Simply state the course number of the course to be canceled as well as your first and last name in the email.

No. A separate basic fee must be booked for each semester. If you have not attended a course in a semester, you can request a refund by sending an email to hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu.

No, participation is only possible after prior registration.

The courses are activated in stages at the start of booking and can therefore be booked. The registration time varies depending on the type of sport. In the course description of the respective course you will find the time at which the course will be activated for booking. Please inform yourself in good time.

Yes, you can register for several courses. However, the basic semester fee only has to be paid once. You can book 3 university sports courses in addition to the basic fee.

If you are enrolled, you can still register for university sports courses via the remaining places allocation. You can book any course that is not fully booked at a later point in the semester. The registration date is not a deadline, but the start of registration. Unfortunately, many courses fill up quickly, which is why you no longer have a free choice. Registration in the walk-in is possible at any time.

The conditions for booking an advanced course can be found in the respective course description. In many cases, participation in a trial training session is required. The passwords for advanced courses can be obtained from the department heads. You will also find the contact details in the course description.

All course fees will be debited from the specified account by SEPA direct debit. For fee-based offers, an IBAN must therefore be provided and confirmation given that the SEPA direct debit procedure is agreed to.

No, you don't have to do anything else. The course fee will be automatically debited from your account about four weeks after the course starts.

The fee is collected or debited by SEPA direct debit four weeks after the start of the course. Courses can therefore be canceled free of charge within the first four weeks. If you register during the semester, the fee will be debited at a fixed later date.

Payment of the basic fee and the course fees is made exclusively by SEPA direct debit. Cash payment or bank transfer is not possible.

If a course is fully booked, you can enter your e-mail address on the waiting list and will then be informed directly when a place becomes available.

The remaining places are always displayed on the homepage in the course search (remaining places). They are not specifically allocated or uploaded, but only the places still available in courses are listed.

Within the first four weeks after the official start of university sports in the respective semester (not the first day of the booked course) there are no cancellation costs and the fees will be refunded 100%. Course cancellations must be made in writing by email to hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu . No refunds will be made for later cancellations. The basic fee will only be refunded if no course registration was possible. Cancellation is not automatic. This also requires an e-mail to hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu

Most questions can be answered by carefully reading the information in the course description of the respective discipline. If you have sport-specific questions, you can contact the department heads of the discipline directly by e-mail. The contacts can be found in the course program under the respective sport.

You can always find the location of the respective course in the details of the course description. We have also prepared an overview of all our sports facilities in our location finder. All sports facilities are provided with a link to the location. You can easily find your course location using Google navigation.

We do not offer trial training, as unregistered participation in HSP courses is not permitted. However, the sports courses can be tested within the first four weeks of the course. During this period, a fee-free refund is possible in the event of withdrawal. For a refund, please send an e-mail to the following e-mail address: hochschulsport∂ifss.kit.edu

All courses are included in the walk-in membership. Before taking part in a course, however, you must register for the respective course via the booking system on the homepage.
