Your Next Step: the Master’s Degree
You can apply a year in advance for your desired starting semester. The application deadline for the winter semester is 1 September (Non-EU: 1 September*) and for the summer semester February 28th (Non-EU: February 05th). After these deadlines there will be a waiting list procedure for available study places each semester. If you already have a valid student visa for Germany, you can apply within the official application deadline.
* Please take into consideration delays e.g. with entry visa.
The main requirement for a master’s degree at University of Applied Sciences Europe is a completed bachelor’s degree programme.
Transfers – that is, graduates with a non-specialist bachelor’s degree – must complete preliminary or preparatory courses before starting their studies. These courses are also provided by University of Applied Sciences Europe: our Student Guidance Office is happy to advise you.

Tips on writing the covering letter
Confidence in the English language is essential for success in your studies. Thus, one purpose of the covering letter is to give us an idea of your language skills. Describe to us in one to one-and-a-half DIN A4 pages (font: Arial 12, single line spacing) why you are interested in the course you have chosen, why you would like to study at UE, and what your expectations are. You should also include in your covering letter any special characteristics or inspiring experience based on previous internships or work experience.
