Information for Applicants from Non-EU states and stateless persons

You can find the exact admission requirements for your course of study on the individual pages of the subject list „Courses of study from A to Z”. There you will find information as to whether or not the programme begins with the desired semester even for first semester students and if the subject has restricted admission or open admission.
It may also be possible to apply with preliminary transcripts, even if a final transcript is not yet available (see "university entrance qualification/transcripts")


The information on these pages is only for applicants who are citizens of non-EU countries or stateless persons (e.g. applicants from Palestine). For all other applicants, please see the pages for applicants from EU and EEA as well as citizens of a foreign country with university entrance entitlement.

We will be happy to help you create a good application. Please call us or visit us during our office hours.
