Which qualifications or which school diplomas <\/b>are relevant is ALWAYS<\/b> assessed<\/b> by the university of applied sciences.<\/b><\/span> <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Check your pre-university education directly with the FH – they will inform you whether you are eligible to attend the preparation courses for foreign students.<\/span><\/p>\n

The learning objectives and contents for English and Mathematics correspond to those relevant for the business studies university entrance examination. We place particular emphasis on subject-specific knowledge in English and Mathematics<\/strong>, which are required for the first bachelor’s semester (for more details go to Learning Content).<\/p>\n

With the assessment by the university of applied sciences <\/b>that the qualifications or school education is relevant to the subject and<\/b> passing the supplementary exams<\/b> at the examination English and\/or Mathematics <\/strong>the formal prerequisites for studying at a university of applied sciences are then met.<\/p>\n

However, this does not give you any guarantee <\/b>for the actual receipt of a study place. The prerequisite for obtaining a study place is always the positive completion of the admission procedure <\/b>at the respective university of applied sciences.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
