In die VU Einführung in die Digital Korean Studies können aufgrund der zu vielen Interessent*innen nur Studierende aufgenommen werden, die sich aufgrund der erfüllten Voraussetzungen zum BA-SE I anmelden dürfen (altes und neues Curriculum!).
Das gilt für Studierende, die bereits "vorgemerkt" im Anmeldesystem sind, als auch für Studierende, die noch im Status "angelegt Voraussetzungsüberprüfung" sind.

Alle anderen, die die Voraussetzungen zum BA-SE I NICHT erfüllen, mögen sich bitte wieder abmelden, um ihre gesetzten Punkte bei einer anderen LV vielleicht besser einzusetzen.
