Application Requirements

There are generically two admission requirements that need to be fulfilled for the application to the B.A. European Cultures and Society:

1. High school certificate

The main application requirement for the Bachelor’s degree program "European Culture and Society" is a general high school degree or a subject-bound high school degree in economics.


In Schleswig-Holstein, a high school degree certifying readiness for a technical college does not entitle a person to study at a university.

Information about career qualifications that entitle a person to study at a university can be found here (information in German).

International applicants (EU and non-EU applicants) need to have a high school certificate which is equivalent to the German high school certificate.
That is not the case for every high school certificate obtained abroad. Sometimes applicants need to complete further education in order to obtain the equivalence (ex. complete a preparation course, pass certain exams in their home country, have completed a certain  number of years in a university, etc.)

In order to get an idea of what the requirements might be, you can get some information on the DAAD page in English - here or on the ANABIN page in German - here.

PLEASE NOTE:

The information on these pages serves only as a non-binding information source. The final decision lies with the admissions office of the Europa-Universität Flensburg and can only be made during the application procedure in face of your application documents.
