DAAD Glossary

Hochschul- Zugangsberechtigung

"Hochschul- Zugangsberechtigung" stands for higher education entrance qualification, i.e. the university entrance qualification. Generally, applicants have to present either the general higher education entrance qualification (Allgemeine Hochschulreife or Abitur) or a subject-specific entrance qualification (such as the "fachgebundene Hochschulreife" or an institution-specific qualification, such as the Fachhochschulreife). Applicants may additionally be required to pass an admissions test or complete an internship.

WS

Abbreviation for winter semester.
