Other requirements

General requirements

Your School leaving certificate. Normally a completed Bachelor’s degree is sufficient; however there are many cases where a secondary school certificate will still play an important role in the evaluation of your entitlement to study in Germany

A Bachelor’s degree equivalent to that of a German Bachelor’s degree is relevant to the Master’s Degree program in a related subject. A prerequisite for the application and admission is that the university is recognised and accredited according to the laws and regulations of the country in which it is based. If these laws stipulate that the study program needs to be accredited as well, then this condition must always be fulfilled too.
