In addition to the mandatory admission requirements, other factors are taken into account in the admissions process for most programs which can increase your chances of being allocated a study place. These selection criteria vary depending on the program you would like to study. Examples include the completion of relevant internships and work experience, semesters spent studying or working abroad, essays, letters of motivation, and awards.
Fulfilling the selection criteria is not a mandatory requirement for your application. Take a look at the selection statutes to view the selection criteria for the degree program you are interested in.
You must indicate in your online application which criteria you fulfill and provide the relevant documents of proof so that we can consider this information in the selection process.
What should I consider before I submit my documents of proof?
Please make sure that your proof
- contains your name.
- The activity and duration must also be clearly stated on the document.
- The proof should be issued while you are still doing the activity, or directly after you have finished. We cannot accept confirmations issued before you start the activity or contracts.
- The document must also contain a stamp and/

To make the process easier for you, we provide standardized forms in German and English that you can complete as proof of an activity.
