INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS FROM NON-EU/EEA COUNTRIESInternal University Selection Procedure
For admission-restricted degree programmes, 8 to 10% of all places are available to international students. If the number of applicants exceeds the number of available university places, the University will implement its own internal selection procedure for the respective subject.
International applicants from non-EU/EEA countries with a foreign university entrance qualification (e.g. High School Diploma, Attestat, Maturità, etc.) must submit an application for admission directly to Heidelberg University for any subject studied at Bachelor’s level, or with a concluding state examination.
