5-application strategy

We apply to 5 universities at the same time — to increase your chances

One application is a single bet. The Complete programme includes support with applications to up to 5 programmes/universities: we spread your applications across different selectivity levels and deadlines so that your admission doesn't depend on a single “yes”.

Via a Studienkolleg, the strategy is worked through twice — for admission to the Studienkolleg and then to university. Both cycles are in one package.

Ambitious Realistic Safe

Support with applications to up to 5 programmes/universities is included (initial admission). Applications beyond 5 programmes cost extra. In the Complete programme, the client pays the uni-assist fees (in Comfort, we cover them).

What's included · 16 steps

The Complete programme covers all 16 steps — not just one

Targeted services cover steps 1–3: guidance, strategy, programme selection. The Complete programme manages the entire route — from strategy to enrolment — and removes the risk of gaps between stages.

One path to your goal

The Complete programme adapts to your scenario

Direct admission, via a Studienkolleg, preparatory courses or to a Master's — the route and the focus within the 16 steps change, but one advisor manages it under one contract.

Via a Studienkolleg or preparatory courses, the Complete programme handles both admissions — to the Studienkolleg, preparatory course or language courses, and then to university — as one path, all the way to your main goal. In effect, two admissions for the price of one package.

~12 months1 admission

Certificate recognised — straight to university

The full 16-step cycle without a Studienkolleg: focus on strategy, language and applying via uni-assist. The shortest route to enrollment.

  • Checking recognition of your school-leaving certificate (anabin) at the start
  • One application cycle — focus on semester deadlines
How it works

Every stage ends with a clear result in your hands

You always see where you are and what you have received: from the list of requirements to being ready to move.

Complete programme vs individual services

Cheaper than the sum of its parts — and includes more

Putting the same route together from individual services costs more — and comes without an end-to-end advisor, proactive support or the Guarantee year.

Individual services
from 4 653 €
In the Complete programme
3 997 €
Save from 1,461 € — and get more included

“From 4 653 €” is an indicative figure for ordering individual admission services for 5 programmes over one full admission cycle; service prices may change.

In the package — beyond the set of services:
  • Proactive: we guide you step by step, not only when you ask
  • Unlimited adjustments within your route
  • Re-application at no extra charge — Guarantee year¹
  • Fixed price for the whole period — no extra charges for services
  • One advisor ties all the stages together for you
  • Via a Studienkolleg or courses — two admissions in one package

Total from (with 1 year of support) 4 653 € 3 997 € in the Complete programme

Prices are “from” prices and reflect a set of individual services comparable to the Complete programme for applications to 5 programmes/universities, base scenario. When applying via a Studienkolleg, steps 9 to 16 are completed twice — ordered separately, this means an even higher total cost, or a greater saving with the Complete programme. Additional costs of third-party companies and educational institutions (language courses, private Studienkolleg, blocked account, visa fee, insurance, accommodation, fees, translations) are not included in the price of our services.¹ Guarantee year — a second support cycle at no extra charge for services under the contract; not a guarantee of admission.

What's in the package

Not a bundle of services, but one party responsible for the result

The Complete programme takes over the coordination of all 16 steps: you don't piece the route together or link up the stages by hand.
