Attention! The following currently applies:
The regulations on admission-restricted (numerus clausus) degree programs and subjects only become legally binding once the Saxon Admission Numbers Ordinance has been issued. As this ordinance, valid for one academic year (winter and summer semester), is usually only issued by the Saxon State Ministry of Science, Culture and Tourism in June / July of the year, all information in this overview is subject to change. You can find out about the current NC regulations on this website once they have been issued. Please note that special application deadlines apply in the case of admission restrictions (NC).
