General information on the admission exam

- The talent test and motivational interview with the candidate for the study make up 50% of the total assessment. The applicant's grade point average for all years of secondary school study is calculated according to the end-of-year report card and the average of the grades in the subjects of the final school-leaving examination. These values are averaged and multiplied by the coefficient of the secondary school from which the applicant has graduated (coefficient 1 for grammar school; coefficient 2 for vocational secondary school; coefficient 3 for vocational secondary school with matriculation). The resulting value determines the applicant's position in the order of success in the admissions procedure. If more than one applicant fulfils the admission requirements for a given study programme, those applicants who have demonstrated the highest level of aptitude for the study according to the admission requirements will be admitted.

The admission criteria for a given study programme are the same as those for a given study programme.
