A ranking list is compiled, based on which these spots are allocated. This ranking is based exclusively on the average grade of the international applicants’ university entrance qualification. The selection thresholds from previous admission rounds for international applicants can be found on the website “Selection Thresholds for Degree Programs with University-Specific Admission Restrictions” (german). For the winter semester, admissions notifications will be available on the Marvin portal starting in late August, and rejection notices starting in late September.
