English (and German) language requirements

Another admission requirement is command of English as a foreign language at level B2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. This can be proven, amongst others, by a certificate of general university entrance qualification or subject-specific university entrance qualification, which includes English as a foreign language.

International applicants and German applicants with a foreign university entrance qualification are kindly advised to read the requirements for German-language courses.

Application hints and tips

If, at the time of application, proof of the first degree qualifying the applicant for a profession is not yet available, the application will be considered under the precondition that 80% of the credit points attainable for the degree have already been achieved based on completed module examinations or the final thesis and the colloquium (if applicable). A certification from the awarding institute of higher education (examination office) serves as proof of the above-mentioned academic achievements. You can find the appropriate form on the Admissions Office website.
