Admission procedure
Getting to know the person behind the certificates - that is the goal of the admission procedure. Application documents can be submitted by mail. A committee then selects suitable candidates who are invited to a personal meeting. The crucial factor is not the grade obtained in the finals, but rather the observable personal motivation that underlies it, e.g. in good grades in science, voluntary work or previous knowledge. An officially recognised proof of solid English skills (min. B2 level) and a certificate of an 8-week nursing internship must be submitted by the time you start your studies. During the selection days, individual interviews are held with applicants to get to know each other. You will have the opportunity to show how much you are passionate about studying medicine. In a 15-minute presentation on any topic, you can then fully convince the committee of your merits.
