Others? Uncertain?

You didn't find the option that fit's your situation best or you're still uncertain? First of all, the majority of our applicants belongs to the first or second group. So, independent of your nationality you should only consider where you did your bachelor's degree. The Double Degree option only applies to one or two out of hundred applications. Hence, if you don't know whether you are a double degree student, you are presumably not.

If you still have no clue, what to choose, please contact our Academic Advisory Services.
