I had applied to two German universities namely stuttgart and hamburg. I thought that due to their not so high overall ranking(I usually refer to arwu.org) the chances should be high. But I got rejected even before I could submit my complete application. How to decide which univs. are safe to apply?
Hi Ashish, Most German Universities are state owned and in general require students with atleast 8.0 CGPA or 80% percent marks and also fairly decent knowledge of German language to be considered for admissions. In fact most German Universities offer programs free of cost and so they receive lots of very high quality application. I met a German University professor who mentioned that they give preference to students with GRE ( atleast 300 plus) as well along with High Academic marks ( 80%). So if you do not fall in that range, do not apply to German Universities. All the best.

Hello Ashish,Hope you are doing well, Germany is one of the most sought after destinations for aspiring students.

Most universities give students an option of choosing from a wide range of majors and modules. In this country, higher education can be completed in 5 years in comparison to 7 years elsewhere. Eligibility Criteria For Admissions In Germany Universities The eligibility criteria to get into universities in Germany vary depending upon the nature and type of course the student is seeking admission. Typically, if candidates intend to apply for an undergraduate degree, they require a school leaving certificate or a secondary education qualification equivalent to that of Germany. It will be evaluated by the Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs of the Federal State. In case of a conditional offer, students have to complete a one-year bridge program and pass an assessment test. An exemption can be obtained from these tests if the person has completed two successful academic years in the home country. Proving skills in the German Language are mandatory. Students can check at the home university's international office or with the international office of the chosen German university. When applying for a postgraduate course, the students needs to have done a course of 4 years bachelor's degree, sometimes even 3 years is accepted. For any Ph.D. discipline, having a master's degree and English speaking skills (based on ToEFL scores) are necessary. The entrance requirements are granted in Germany on the basis of previous years' academic record. However, management courses may require GMAT and engineering, a GRE score. Application Procedures Students can directly submit their forms to universities; applications are available in international offices or from the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service). There is an organization called 'Assist' that helps foreign students settle into the environment. Along with the application, certain required documents such as authenticated copies of original certificates and proficiency in German Language must be furnished on request from the university.
