The HSG campus in St. Gallen – our home.

In the assessment year you sit exams over two semesters in business, economics, law I and political science – plus, depending on your track, maths with statistics (economics), law II (law) or political science B (international affairs). On top come Contextual Studies, including a foreign language, and the accounting exam. To pass you need 60 credits, an average of at least 4.00 and no more than 8 minus grade credit points (M-NCPs) – down from 12 from autumn 2026.

We were the first to offer HSG tutoring officially, and over more than 7 years we've supported 250+ HSG students – more than anyone else. We know where it gets tight: usually maths and economics, often in the very first semester. So we plan with you, subject by subject, where you'll secure points – and practise with past exams.

I had to resit my constitutional law (Law B) assessment exam and was under a lot of pressure. Coaching Institute helped me enormously! I can recommend Julia in particular with all my heart. She didn't just help me truly understand the material, she was also a huge emotional support during difficult times. … I passed the exam.
Gian S.· University of St. Gallen, autumn 2025★★★★★
Highly recommended tutoring! Several courses are covered, each with matching material. I could get in touch with questions, and the support was flexible and always helpful. It helped me a lot 👌
Johan V.· University of St. Gallen, spring 2025★★★★★
A friend recommended Coaching Institute to me. I decided to use it last semester for maths. I found the structure of the lessons and the material provided for every topic very helpful, as it was very detailed and useful. The tutoring prepares you well for the exam without much extra preparation of your own, because the lessons work with past exam examples. I had a very positive experience and can recommend Coaching Institute to everyone.

Questions about HSG tutoring.

Missing your question? Write to us, we answer personally.

How many minus points can I have in the assessment year?

If you start or repeat the assessment year from autumn 2026, you may have at most 8 minus grade credit points (M-NCPs), no more than 4 of them in Contextual Studies. You also need 60 credits, an overall average of at least 4.00, a passed accounting exam and your first foreign-language course.

Which subjects are the hardest?

Maths with statistics and economics cause the most trouble – even for very strong school leavers. Since every grade counts, it pays to secure points early.

I have to repeat the assessment year. What now?

You repeat it once and in full, with every exam except a passed accounting exam. We analyse where you lost points and plan your second attempt from day one.

When should I start?

Ideally before term starts – our places for the assessment year are limited.

How much does HSG tutoring cost?

A one-to-one 45-minute lesson costs CHF 89 to 139, depending on level and scope. Preparation included, no subscriptions.

Do you also teach groups?

Our focus is one-to-one. On request we also teach small groups of 2–3, for example if you study together – just let us know.

Do you accept everyone?

Not always. We expect commitment and have clear guidelines.

Your assessment year. Your plan.
