If your student status changes in any way, you are responsible for informing the local authorities. Please note that changing your study programme and/or study plans (for example, taking a leave of absence from the university) can have an adverse effect on your residence permit. Moreover, your residence permit for studying loses its validity as soon as you exmatriculate from the university.
