Admission requirements
First-year students in their first study semester usually start their studies in the winter semester. With the approval of the examination board, enrolment is also possible for the summer semester, although this may lead to an extension of the period of study beyond the standard period of study. In addition, you can apply for a higher study semester, provided that there are sufficient creditable study achievements and the study semester classification for which you are applying corresponds to the semester for which you have been admitted. Further information on the application can be found on the Student Services website.
