Academic and language preparation

Bachelor in American Studies or a sufficiently related subject; C1 English; three-stage aptitude process including application materials, essay and interview.

Application route and preparation

Two separate processes: university application (AlmaWeb or uni-assist according to degree origin) and the institute’s aptitude test. The published entrance-packet deadline of 27 April 2026 is for 2026/27 only; do not reuse it as a 2027 deadline.

A published programme does not mean every intake is open. Confirm the academic year, applicant category, required documents and submission deadline on the official application page.

Tuition and funding context

No general tuition; all students pay a semester contribution. Second-degree and long-term-study fees can apply. The contribution for a 2027 start has not been verified.
