Admission requirements

There is no admission restriction in the form of a NC (Numerus clausus) for degree programmes at Euro-FH. To be admitted to the Business Psychology programme at Euro-FH with or without a school leaving certificate, you have the following options:

• Admission route 1: With Abitur or Fachhochschulreife. With Abitur or Fachhochschulreife, you can register immediately for study at Euro-FH. The university also recommends at least 12 weeks of relevant professional experience related to the degree programme. Already completed study and exam achievements from other universities may possibly be credited towards the programme.
• Admission route 2: Without Abitur, with subject-specific advanced training examination. You can also be admitted to study at Euro-FH without Abitur if you a) have completed a subject-specific advanced training examination (such as State-certified Business Administrator, Certified IHK Accountant, Specialist, Business Specialist, State-certified Technician, Master Craftsman) OR can provide a qualification certificate according to the Ship Officer Training Regulation OR hold a degree from a recognised technical school OR have a degree from state regulations for advanced training in professions in the healthcare sector, in the field of social care or social pedagogy. You will then take part in a counselling interview with the expert commission at Euro-FH.
• Admission route 3: Without Abitur, with completed vocational training and several years of professional experience. If you have completed vocational training and have subsequently been employed for at least 3 years (up to 2 years of childcare and care work are taken into account for professional experience), you can be admitted as a so-called "guest auditor" to the programme. This means you start your studies just like regular students and receive all materials and services like your fellow students, and you can also sit exams. Within 10 months, you then take the entrance examination at Euro-FH, for which the university provides optimal preparation. Upon passing the entrance examination, your status changes from "guest auditor" to "regular student". You will receive proof of your already completed study and exam achievements and continue your studies seamlessly.
