What are the entry requirements for Bachelor’s programs?

Applicants need a recognized HZB (e.g., German Abitur or equivalent international qualification). Non-EU students apply via uni‑assist during the November–January window, while EU/EFTA applicants apply directly.

What about Master’s program admission criteria?

A relevant Bachelor’s degree (180–240 ECTS) with a minimum grade (e.g. ≤ 2.8 for physics or 2.5 for Econ & Journalism) and proof of English B2 or German C1 proficiency are required. Admission is tuition-free and assessed case-by-case.

Are there any aptitude exams or quotas?

No restricted admission programs currently exist; Bachelor places are allocated 20% by grade and 80% through internal selection, which factors in waiting time.
