General information on the application procedure
The application deadline is a cut-off date for all study/degree programmes. Late or incomplete applications can therefore not be considered. The University is not obliged to investigate the facts of the application ex officio if documents are missing or incomplete. This also applies in the event that the University still has other documents from another application procedure.
