How to apply

The general procedure is the same for all programmes of the university; the required grade, language and additional requirements are on the page of each programme.

1
Check your school-leaving certificate
Direct admission, admission after a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — it depends on your country and certificate.
2
Application via uni-assist
Deadlines differ between programmes — check the programme page.
3
Admission, visa, moving
Plan 2–3 months for the visa and the blocked account — start them in parallel with the application.

If you don't meet the requirements yet

Two typical stops: a school certificate without direct admission and German below the required level. Both can be solved within a year, but plan them before you apply, not after a rejection.

German for admission

Language courses in Berlin: preparation for the required level and the exam (DSH, TestDaF).
