Admission procedure

As a rule, ten percent of the available study places on a study programme are allocated to vocationally qualified applicants. If you belong to this applicant group, you will only compete against other vocationally qualified applicants in the admission procedure. The average grade of your vocational training is the only deciding criterion. The better your average grade, the better your chances of securing a study place.

Conditions

If you have been granted admission with a special entry qualification, you will be subject to certain conditions.
