Recommended Application Deadline: 18th June 2025 (For applicants residing in Germany)

To ensure your place and allow enough time to complete all application steps before the course begins in late September, we strongly recommend that applicants based in Germany apply by 18th June.

The application process includes:

  • Meeting academic and English language entry requirements
  • Completing an interview for your chosen course

Submit your application by this deadline to guarantee a place on your preferred course.

Once you receive an offer, you’ll be invited to book a personalised one-to-one meeting with a Course Leader. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, discuss your circumstances, and explore your study plans and career goals. We also advise all applicants to review our Accommodation page for helpful guidance on relocating to Berlin.

Applying from outside Germany?

You’re still welcome to apply. If you require a visa, please apply as early as possible—visa processing can take up to 90 days, and early action helps prevent delays. EU and International applicants should also consult our accommodation resources for relocation support.
