You can apply for a master’s program before completing your bachelor’s program under the following conditions:

• You must be in the last semester of your program

• You must present proof of successful completion of the program at the time of admission (original notification of conferral of your degree, list of grades).
  Please note that we cannot accept any preliminary confirmations of degree completion.

You can apply for several German-taught master’s programs simultaneously. In this case, however, you have to submit all your applications at the same time and rank them by preference. Please choose the order of your applications carefully because you won’t be able to change it afterwards.
The applications will be processed in the order in which you submit them. As soon as one of your applications is accepted, your lower preferences will not be considered anymore.
