Selection Process

The selection process is divided into two stages.

• Academic Entry Requirements
  • eg. CGPA, field of study, language proficiency 
• Formal Entry Requirements
  • eg. APS certificates, Anabin status

General Information on Selection Rules

The main selection criterion is your GPA and your field of study in relation to other candidates from the same university, the country and the world. Other information provided, as well as information from our knowledge base (regarding applications and students), may be taken into consideration as well.
English language proficiency is a legal prerequisite. It is a one that is either fulfilled or not. Having a higher score than needed does not provide an advantage.
The non-availability of a Bachelor degree certificate during the process, as well as temporary transcripts are not used as criteria for selection.
Gender and nationality do not play a role in the selection process.

Application Status in C@MPUS

• All application data and documents are downloaded from C@MPUS for evaluation. Once the evaluation is complete applicants are informed about the status of their application (admitted or application not accepted/not successful) via C@MPUS.
  • Note: Admission is only guaranteed when both the academic and formal entry reqiuirements have been marked as 'fulfilled'.
    
• The C@MPUS data will be updated to reflect these findings. The symbols in “Admission” will reflect your application status. Not all document-related fields will be updated. So, a statement like "uploaded" vs "ok" does not mean the document has not been read and taken into consideration. Usually, only the document fields “Bachelor Degree Certificate”, “Transcripts of Records” or “Proof of English Language Skills” and the field for APS will be updated.

C@mpus may show:

• Academic Entry AND Formal Entry Requirements: Fulfilled means: You are admitted
  • With full/final documents received
    Application Documents: Complete
  • With one or all documents on a temporary level
    Application Documents: Provisional Complete
    → The field: Bachelor Degree Certificate shows "Submit by End of eg. WS 202*/2*"  - you are admitted, but can first enroll once you provide your final degree certificate.
• The status Academic Entry Requirements and/or Forma: Not Fulfilled means: You are Not Admitted (see published application requirements)
