German applicants typically obtain their direct university entrance qualification via German Abitur . International applicants must have their entrance qualification evaluated by uni-assist e.V . International applicants with an indirect university entrance qualification in Germany may attend the Preparatory College (Studienkolleg) to obtain access to higher education in Germany.
