After you have logged in to WU Check-In with your WU account login data (student account!), you will see the start page:

• An overview of all courses/exams of the current day for which you are registered

• In the check-in column, a  check-in button, which is active starting 30 minutes before the start of the course/examination

• A search field in case a course is not listed in your individual overview

30 minutes before the start of a course/exam, the check-in starts. For on-campus units, the seat number must be entered at the same time.

Depending on the course/exam format, the following check-in options are offered on the start page:

• On campus: On campus

• Online: Online

• Hybrid: On campus & online

• Choose a seat in the auditorium and log in to WU Check-in. Make sure that you use your student account, otherwise you will not get an overview of your courses.

• Please click on the "On campus"-button next to the course/exam on the start page

• Enter your seat number, which you will find in the colored dot on the table.

• Confirm the check-in ("Confirm check-in and seat")

Changes of the seat number or changes of on-campus/online check-in status are only possible within 5 minutes after check-in. The buttons for making corrections are displayed on the start page after check-in.

• Change seat => allows you to enter a different seat number or selection of the common room (if, for example, the wrong one was selected in the case of breakout bookings)

• Cancel check-in => allows you to switch between on-campus/online check-in status or to cancel the check-in altogether (wrong course/exam)

Contact tracing measures will be carried out on the basis of this data in the event that a positive case is reported.

For courses with compulsory attendance (PI, VUE, MPV, FS, AG) the attendance may also be recorded via WU Check-in. If so, you also announce your presence via check-in for online units.

• Please click on the "Online"-button next to the course/exam on the start page

• Confirm the check-in ("Confirm online check-in")

Deleting a false booking (wrong course/exam) or changes of on-campus/online check-in status are only possible within 5 minutes after check-in. The buttons for making corrections are displayed on the start page after check-in.

Contact tracing measures will be carried out on the basis of on-campus-check-in data in the event that a positive case is reported.

You are automatically checked out at the end of the course unit/exam.

Please pay special attention to the room assignment in case of on campus exams (main exam weeks!), since you can only check in to exactly this room. Please check the WU Campus Map to find out where your exam room is and how to get there.
If you are asked to change seats during exams after check-in (to fill the room, establish proper seating arrangements, or to stop "cheating," etc.), please calmly follow the instructions of the exam proctors. It is NOT necessary to correct your check-in - in most cases this will not be possible in time. The course instructors or the tutors will document this (e.g. by manual check lists) in order to enable a correct contact tracing.

If several rooms are booked for a course:

• select the room in which they are participating in the course/exam during the on-campus check-in (drop-down list)

• enter your seat number as usual
