University of Applied Sciences Kufstein (FH Kufstein Tirol) Campus is situated in a modern, attractive environment in Kufstein, Tyrol, Austria. The campus lies in a green park area adjacent to the town centre, providing a scenic setting with views of the nearby mountains and fortress, contributing to an international and inspiring study atmosphere.

There are around 2400 students in the university.

To be eligible for a Bachelor’s degree programme, international applicants must have a valid secondary school leaving qualification that entitles them to enter higher education in their home country and is comparable to an Austrian university entrance qualification (typically at least 12 years of formal schooling). Whether a foreign certificate meets this requirement is assessed by the university admissions team after you submit your online application. You must complete an online application with key documents such as your passport or identity proof, CV, recent school transcripts/diploma certificate, and a photo. If your final certificate isn’t yet available, you can usually submit your most recent school report or transcript and provide the final diploma before studies begin. Language proficiency must be demonstrated depending on the language of instruction: for German‑taught programmes, a German certificate at CEFR level B2 is required; for English‑taught programmes, proof of English skills at B2 level is needed unless you are from an English‑speaking country like the USA, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia or New Zealand. After submitting your application, you will be invited to a 20‑minute admission interview (in person or online) once the admissions team has reviewed your credentials; the interview is a required step before a final offer is given. In some cases, preparatory or foundation courses may be recommended, and additional entrance exams in subjects such as German, mathematics or English may be required during the first semesters if your secondary school qualification differs from the typical Austrian academic profile.

For postgraduate (Master’s) admission at the University of Applied Sciences Kufstein Tirol (FH Kufstein Tirol), international students must meet several clear academic and documentation requirements: you need a completed Bachelor’s degree or equivalent post‑secondary qualification from a recognised institution; FH Kufstein Tirol evaluates the relevance of your prior degree based on the subject area of the Master’s programme you are applying to and will assess this after you submit your online application. As part of the online application, you will be asked to upload proof of identity (passport), your Bachelor’s diploma and a transcript of records with grades and ECTS credits, a curriculum vitae (CV), and a recent photo. If your final degree is not yet available at the time of application, an updated transcript showing progress toward completion may be submitted and the final diploma provided later. Because FH Kufstein Tirol offers programmes in both German and English, you must demonstrate language proficiency at the CEFR level B2 for the language of instruction for English‑taught Master’s degrees this means showing B2 English competence via recognised certificates such as IELTS, TOEFL or equivalent. Finally, after submitting your documents, you will be invited to a short admission interview (online or in person) as part of the final selection process; this interview, combined with your submitted credentials, determines whether an offer of admission is made.
