Any official certifications and certified translations (into German or English). However, should your certificates and references already have been (also) issued officially in German or English language forms in your country of origin, we do not require additional translations. Certificates and references issued in French must be officially translated into either German or English. As a member university of uni-assist, have adopted their common standards for official certifications and certified translations. Click on Certifications and translations to find out what must be heeded in this regard.

• Current certificate of study or disenrollment certificate

Please only submit those documents required for an application. Any additional verifications not specified as required for an application for admission, and which are not prerequisites for admission to your chosen degree course, such as, for example, references, photos, module manuals, job references, police clearance certificates, transparent covers, loose-leaf binders, application portfolios, etc. are entirely unnecessary and cost both time and money, impeding both uni-assist and ourselves in processing your application – and which will in no way improve your chances of being admitted.
