Retrospective submission of documents for Master’s programmes

Applications must be received in full by the end of the respective application period. Incomplete applications will not be processed. It is not possible to submit documents after the application deadline! There are two exceptions:

1. Exception: No bachelor’s degree certificate yet
If the bachelor’s degree certificate is not yet available at the time of application, the application may be submitted with a confirmation certified by the university. This confirmation must confirm that the degree has been completed (or that the thesis has been submitted or at least registered). For applications to the M.Sc. Chemistry programme, this confirmation does not need to be certified; a transcript of records showing that you will soon graduate is sufficient. If you are admitted, you must then present your bachelor’s degree certificate when you enrol.

2. Exception: Language certificates
The required language skills must be proven at the latest upon enrolment. Enrolment will be refused if the necessary language certificates are not available.
