Admission chaos at the University of Finance: 42 candidates affected!
On the evening of August 29, 2025, the University of Finance and Marketing Admissions Council announced the review and adjustment of the admission results for the year 2025. This announcement follows a series of data integration errors that resulted in incorrect results.
The review revealed a surprising result: 33 candidates went from “fail” to “pass,” while 42 candidates were downgraded from “pass” to “fail.” These discrepancies arose due to errors in converting the results of the English certificates.
Cooperation with the authorities
The university clarified that the errors were not caused by the Ministry of Education's General Admission Support System, but resulted from the university's internal data processing. To safeguard the rights of candidates, the university has already submitted a report and a list of affected candidates to the Ministry of Education and Training.
In this context, it was emphasized that the school works closely with the relevant authorities. Of the 33 successfully admitted candidates, the news was communicated directly, while the 42 affected candidates were contacted directly and apologized. Official notifications with the new admission requests have also been sent to the candidates.
Improving approval processes
The university has announced that the list of adjusted admission results will be reported to the Ministry of Education for updating the admission support system. The university is also committed to granting applicants the greatest possible rights and improving the quality of admissions in the future.
Another aspect that is becoming increasingly important in the current educational landscape is the role of digitalization in university teaching. In this regard, Cathleen M. Stützer from the Technical University of Dresden has conducted empirical studies on the acceptance of AI by students at Saxon universities. Her work, which was created as part of the tech4comp project (BMBF: 16DHB2103), sheds light on the integration of artificial intelligence into higher education and the associated challenges.
With the increased focus on digital teaching methods, it is clear that universities in Germany are constantly working on improving their educational processes in order to respond to the needs of students and meet the challenges of the modern educational landscape. In the future, the use of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence could also make the approval process more efficient.
It is important for affected students at the University of Finance and Marketing that these changes are implemented quickly to provide clarity and security regarding their study plans.
