Some degree programmes are restricted by a numerus clausus (NC). Since there are more applicants than places, admission is based on certain criteria. As a rule, your university entrance qualification must have a certain grade point average. The required grade point average is not fixed in advance, but is determined each semester. In some degree programmes there are further selection criteria (e.g. selection interviews) and admission requirements (e.g. further language skills).
