Foreign higher education entrance qualification

Application via uni-assist

If you have obtained your university degree abroad, you must check to what extent it is equivalent to the German higher education entrance qualification for a master's degree program.

If your foreign higher education entrance qualification is recognized as equivalent to the German one and sufficient German language skills are proven, you will be admitted to the study place allocation procedure. German citizens with a foreign university degree do not have to provide proof of German language proficiency.

If you have not obtained your university degree in Germany, please send your application to uni-assist (address on the right).

The nationality of the applicants is irrelevant.
  • You have already obtained recognition of your foreign university degree in Germany with a stated grade point average.
  • You would like to apply to the consecutive master's degree program International Business (M.A. IB full-time) and have obtained your first university degree qualifying for a profession in a country belonging to the EU.
  • You would like to apply to the continuing education master's degree programs International Business (M.Sc. IB) and/or Taxation.
