No admission restrictions

In addition to locally and nationally restricted programmes, there are programmes with no admission restrictions at all, i.e. usually no specific additional requirements you need to fulfil. In most cases, you can enrol if you have a general higher education entrance qualification (Abitur), an entrance qualification for universities of applied sciences (Fachhochschulreife), or certain other professional qualifications. You enrol directly with the higher education institution itself. However, these also have deadlines you need to observe.
