We require the following documents in order to verify your university entrance qualification:

Optional:

• Translations of all attached educational certificates (English)
• Proof of professional qualifications for applicants

Applicants who require a visa for Germany and do not yet have one should submit their application the latest by June 15 for the fall term or by December 15 for the spring term.

To enroll in a Bachelor's program, you must have successfully completed your high school diploma, a vocational diploma (both academic and practical components), or a recognized professional qualification that entitles to German university entrance (e.g., German master craftsman's certificate). You must also provide proof of language proficiency at least at the level B2 in the language of instruction (English in this case), submit all application documents in full, and successfully complete the admission process.

If you have already completed professional training or passed exams in another degree program, you can apply to have your previous achievements recognized for your ISM bachelor's degree program and thus shorten your study time. You will benefit from a more efficient course of study, enter a higher semester if applicable, and gain valuable freedom for practical experience, experiences abroad, or individual specializations.
