Additionally, applicants must also provide proof of sufficient knowledge of English and German showing a language proficiency level of C1 level in one of these two languages, and B2 in the other.

The admissibility and recognition of language certificates, as well as decisions about exceptions and borderline cases regarding program admissions will be decided on by the Admissions Committee.

Applicants who cannot submit a university degree as mentioned under (1) and/or proof of language proficiency as mentioned under (2) by the application deadline may be admitted into the program on a provisional basis - see below.

If language proficiency is demonstrated by means of language certificates, then one of the certificates should not be older than two years, the other not older than five years, calculated from the date of the examination until the beginning of the semester for which enrollment is requested. If only language proficiency in one language is verified by a language certificate, this certificate should not be older than five years old, calculated from the date of the examination to the beginning of the semester for which enrollment is for.

If you are unable to meet all the requirements for final admission (BA certificate with 180 ECTS credit points and the language certificates, if applicable) by the end of the application period, you may be granted provisional admission to the M.A. Kultur - Sprache - Medien. To obtain this, please apply with your current transcript of records (even if you currently have less than 150 ECTS credits) and all other required documents, if any are available.

Once you have been granted provisional admission, you must complete three (in some cases four) independent steps:

1. You have to submit the enrollment documents specified in the letter of admission to the Registrar's Office within the set deadline. Only once these documents have been received can you confirm the university's offer of admission and accept the study place.
2. By November 1st, you must provide proof that you have completed 150 ECTS in your Bachelor's degree program. Proof can be provided in the form of a transcript of records or credit point overview, or an informal letter from the relevant examination office.
3. If proof of language proficiency is required, it must be submitted by the end of the first semester (28.02).
4.  You have to submit proof of having passed your B.A. studies (certificate and/or transcript of records or an official informal confirmation from the responsible examination office) to the Admissions Office of the Europa-Universität Flensburg by the end of your 2nd semester (31.08.) at the latest.
