FAQ:UniAssist

If you have obtained or will obtain your Bachelor's degree abroad, it is also recommended that you submit proof of the conversion of your final grade or your current average grade into the German grading system. You can apply for this conversion via the uni-assist website.

Uni-assist supports international student applicants and German universities in processing applications to study in Germany. Uni-assist's core responsibility is the evaluation of student applications for uni-assist universities.

• They evaluate if your educational certificates fulfil the general criteria for university studies in Germany.
• They convert your grades to the German system of grades.
• They check additional admission criteria set by the universities of your choice, depending on the procedure.
• They register all data and documents necessary for the universities’ admission procedures.
• They inform you about your evaluation result.

In the end the IAS admission team, not uni-assist, decides on your admission.

Conversions from the Central Office for Foreign Education, the Certificate Recognition Offices of the Länder and APS certificates from the Academic Evaluation Centres in China, Vietnam and Mongolia are also accepted. Further information can be found on the relevant website of the CampusCenter regarding the recognition of foreign educational qualifications.

No matter whether you use one of these services or not, please include in your application:

• Official document(s) attested by your university containing your grade (can be preliminary) with the minimum and the maximum passing grade of your grading system in numbers.
