While most German universities require applicants to have the German university entrance qualification (Abitur) or an equivalent qualification from their home country, there are some universities that offer alternative admission pathways for students who do not have this qualification. Here are a few examples:
- University of Kassel – The university offers a program called “studium.uni-kassel.de,” which allows international students to enroll in undergraduate programs without the need for the German university entrance qualification.
- University of Hagen – The university offers distance learning programs, including undergraduate and graduate programs, that do not require the German university entrance qualification.
- Jacobs University Bremen – The university offers a Foundation Year program for international students who do not have the German university entrance qualification. Successful completion of the program allows students to enroll in undergraduate programs at the university.
- Bremen University of Applied Sciences – The university offers a “Studium Generale” program that allows students without the German university entrance qualification to enroll in undergraduate programs.
It’s important to note that each university may have specific admission requirements and application procedures for these alternative pathways, so be sure to check with the university directly for more information.
