Before the exam

This chapter describes all steps that must be taken in order to participate in an on site entrance exam at TU Darmstadt.

Login in Moodle Exam for Guests and Applicants

Dear Applicant and Guest of the Technische Universität Darmstadt,

if you have been invited to use Moodle Exam of TUDa, then you have been sent your login credentials to the email address you provided as a way to contact you.
If you´re not sure that you received this email, please have a look in the spam folders.
Should the email really have gone lost, please try the password recovery as described later in this article. If you had already applied at TUDa before this term your login usually still exists.

First go to: Moodle Exam TUDa. In the upper right corner you can select select German or English as the language to display Moodle Exam in. Next to this function you will find the login button.

Please use the login mask "Login für Bewerbenede - Login for Applicants". The first line asks for your user name, which is your contact email address. The second line is the password. You will likely be asked to change it after your first login. Make sure to use a password you will remember! Finally, use the login button to be directed to the Moodle Exam Dashboard.

Password recovery

If you need to reset your password, please use the "Lost password or not received one yet?" hyperlink. Use "Search by email address" with your contact email address. Check in forehand spamfilters, free space and login and so on.
Hint: If the recovery works not well, then use the password recovery line for search by email. Use lower case in the search line.

Finding the correct course

After logging in you will be directed to the Dashboard. You will find your entrance exam course in the "Course overview". If you are applying for the first time, and have only applied to one program, you will only see one course. If you have applied for multiple programs, there will also be multiple courses. If you have already applied for past terms, you will also see courses from these terms which are no longer active. Make sure you are using the current course by checking the date in the name of the course.

Contents of the entrance exam course

In the course, you will find everything you need in order to prepare for the entrance exam. At the time of the exam, you will also find it within the course.
