Dear Student,

to help you organize your tasks at the start of the semester, we have compiled the most important information on activating your semester and registering for subjects.

If you have any questions about the newsletter, please email us at kth-info@bme.hu. 

THE MOST IMPORTANT PERIODS AND DEADLINES

(Neptun ➥ Information ➥ Periods)

Registration period (setting your student status)

For the students of the Faculty of Economic and Social Sciences: You can only register for an active semester in Neptun following the successful completion of the '700_BME GTK Work and Fire Safety Training' request in Neptun (Administration/Requests – Available request forms). If you encounter any problems, please email iso@gtk.bme.hu.

Passive semester

 After the registration period (03.09.26), student’s status will be changed centrally to 'passive' in the following cases:

• failed to change their status to ‘active’ before the mentioned deadline
• overdue debt
• missing study contract (tuition fee paying students)
• in cases specified in Section 57 (8) of CoS, if there is no valid course/subject registration

A student’s legal status will be terminated if they fail to get permission for a third passive semester or does not set the status of the 2026/27/1 semester active.

The period of continuous passive status cannot be longer than two semesters. The Faculty Study Committee can grant permission for the extension of the allowed number of passive semesters, but only in justified cases. This needs to be requested in Neptun via the '036B Request for increasing the allowed number of passive terms'.

Those students can register for courses who were enrolled in the given program in the 2025/26/2 semester and who completed all questionnaires that could be completed in accordance with the Student Evaluation of Teaching (hereinafter referred to as OHV) regulations during the semester, or who did not have any OHV questionnaires to complete.

The OHV questionnaires to be completed are available in Neptun under Menu ➥ Administration ➥ Questionnaires. The completion status of OHV questionnaires can be checked on the Menu ➥ Information ➥ Queries interface by selecting the "OHV_kérdőíveim_száma" query from the Queries and then clicking on the List button. Running the query will show you how many questionnaires have been completed, how many can still be completed, how many can be completed after the exam period, and how many cannot be completed.

If the student completes all the questionnaires that can be completed but still has some that cannot be completed, they will still be eligible for discounted course registration.

The deadline for completing the OHV questionnaires is 20 July 2026. Eligible students will be informed about the preferential subject registration in Neptun by 26.08.
