Aptitude assessment procedure in undergraduate degree programs
In the degree programs listed below, applicants must participate in an aptitude assessment procedure to determine whether they meet the admission requirements. This could mean simply submitting additional documentation, or it could involve taking an aptitude test or taking part in an assessment interview. Please take careful note of the deadlines and terms for registration, as these can frequently differ from the typical application procedure. Please also note that the responsible office at TU Dresden must have received all necessary documents in the required form by the deadline provided, as all deadlines represent cut-off periods!
The table below will also inform you whether or not you have to complete an online application prior to submitting the required documentation. If this is not explicitly required, you can complete the online application in parallel to the aptitude assessment procedure. You must then submit the notice of having passed the aptitude assessment along with your applicant number to the Admissions Office/International Office upon receipt. Furthermore, you can read below to which institution you must send your documents (Faculty or Admissions Office/International Office).
