    Direct admission, a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — this decides the whole plan.

    Certified translations of the certificate and transcript, an APS if required. 3–4 weeks.
  3. 3
    Application directly to the university until 31.05

How to apply

You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
