Application Requirements

Language Requirements

The entrance requirement for English knowledge is level C1. - Graduates having passed their complete Bachelor’s studies taught in English don’t need an English test (like IELTS) as a proof of their level C1; a confirmation of English as the language of instruction issued by the university is sufficient.

Qualification Requirements

The minimum academic requirement is a Bachelor’s degree in a Business oriented program equivalent to 210 ECTS (credits in the European credit transfer system where 30 ECTS represent 1 semester). Please don’t “mix” ECTS and credits in non-EU national or university specific credit systems! - In case the Bachelor’s degree was not business oriented, an equivalent of minimum 45 ECTS in business subjects has to be proved. - The regular study duration can’t always be converted: a 4-years Bachelor’s achieved in another country might be comparable to a 3-years German degree (180 ECTS), sometimes only partially comparable. - Many 3-years Bachelor’s degrees (B.Com., BBA etc.) don’t qualify for Master’s unless completed by a postgraduate program. - A Professional Bachelor / Licence Professionelle doesn’t qualify for Master’s studies. - Applicants having passed a Bachelor’s and a postgraduate degree should upload the documents of their complete academic history. - The average grade has to be “good” / “2,5” in the German grading system. Here, “very good” / “1,0” = the best grade; “satisfactory” / “4,0” = minimum pass. There are as many grading systems all over the world as countries exist, and in many countries, even the university schemes differ. Therefore, the grading scheme is part of the degree (exception: countries with a uniform grading system like Tunisia, Cameroun…)
