Admission requirements

With Abitur or Fachhochschulreife

With this qualification, you can immediately enroll in studies at the Euro-FH. We also recommend a practical work experience of at least 12 weeks with a suitable reference to the degree programme. Previous study and examination achievements from other universities can possibly be credited towards your studies at the Euro-FH.

Without Abitur, with a specific professional qualification

You can also be admitted to study at the Euro-FH without Abitur, if you meet the following two criteria:

You can provide one of the following qualifications:

You have completed a specific professional qualification, e.g.

• State-certified business economist
• Certified accountant (IHK)
• Specialist
• Business specialist
• State-certified technician
• Master

or a degree from a recognized technical school

or a certificate of competence according to the Ship Officer Training Regulation

or a degree from a recognized technical school

or a degree from state-specific advanced training regulations for professions in healthcare, social care, or social-pedagogical professions

You will also participate in a consultation with the specialist commission of the Euro-FH. The consultation will be conducted by telephone and will last approximately 15 minutes. The scheduling of the appointment for the conversation will take place after reviewing your enrollment documents.

Without Abitur, with completed vocational training and several years of professional experience

If you have completed a vocational training and have been employed for at least three years afterwards (up to two years of child-rearing and caregiving activities are also credited towards this), you can be admitted to study as a so-called "guest auditor."

This means that you start your studies just like regular students and receive all documents and services like your classmates, including being able to take exams. Within ten months, you will then take the entrance exam at the Euro-FH, for which we will prepare you optimally. Upon passing the entrance exam, your status changes from that of a "guest auditor" to that of a "regular student." You will receive a record of your previous study and examination achievements and continue your studies seamlessly.
