If you wish to apply at 中国足球彩票手机版 School of Management, you must first send your documents by email to our study advisors.

Step 1. Fast check via study advisor

This is what you need for the initial check of your registration, if you do NOT have a German high school diploma:

• Curriculum vitae (CV)
• School-leaving certificate qualifying you to study at a higher German education institution
• Copy of your national ID card
• Digital passport photo (1 picture, colored, jpg. format, high resolution)

Step 2. Online application process

After successful verification, you will be asked to register online for an ISM admission test.

中国足球彩票手机版 applicants who require a visa for studying in Germany must submit their application documents by

• July 15th (for the fall semester) or
• December 15th (for the spring semester).

This is what you need for successful admission to the program:

• the application documents as well as
• the successful passing of the admission test

The ISM admission process selects those applicants who are best suited to study at ISM due to their abilities, motivation to study and personality. Your Numerus Clausus (NC) does not direclty count for admission.

The admission process is divided into two parts:

1. Online performance assessments in Mathematics and English

This assessment includes an online test in Mathematics and one in English. These are taken online at your preferred time prior to your interview day.

The Bachelor’s programs that are taught 100% in English do not require previous knowledge of the German language. A test or preliminary course is therefore not necessary.

Foreign applicants who do not have any previous knowledge or a B2-level of German will have to take German language class as a second foreign language during their studies.

All other applicants have to choose between French, Italian and Spanish as second foreign language. If they already are skilled in one of these languages, based on their language level they will enter either the beginner or advanced class. You can get more information from the study contents webpage or directly from your study advisor.

2. Personal interview

The online personal interview is structured as a classic job interview and examines your essential personality traits and motivation to study.

The aim of the interview is to get to know you better and to give you feedback on your results from the two performance assessment tests.

The interview is about your background, your professional and personal development goals and reasons for your motivation to study in Germany and at ISM.

Further details on the admission process and the contents of the assessment tests can be found in the PDF file Information on the selection procedure for Bachelor's studies, PDF.
