The original or an officially certified copy of the original certificate must be submitted by the official application deadline. The deadline for degree programmes with NC is the 15th of July for the winter semester and the 15th of January for the summer semester.

 

 

For degree programmes without NC, you can also apply with a recognised B2 certificate by the 15th of July for the winter semester or the 15th of January for the summer semester. In this case, you will receive a conditional admission with an invitation to undertake our German language test for university admission ( Deutsche Sprachprüfung für den Hochschulzugang, DSH).

A recognised C1 certificate must then be submitted at the latest before enrolment ( enrolment deadlines).
