Students who are acquiring/acquired a Bachelor's degree at another university in Germany are/were admitted to the Master's programme with proviso.

These external students must submit their documents to the Master's Admissions Office for verification of the documents submitted only as copies in the KLIPS application. They will then receive a verification note which will lead to the lifting of the re-registration block in the Student Administration Office (provided that all other enrolment-relevant documents have been submitted).

If you have an international degree and have the VPD, you do not have to hand in originals. In that case, it only needs to be presented, if the Bachelor's certificate was not yet available at the time of application

You can either come to our office (room 028, Philosophikum) to our opening hours (mondays and Thursdays 10 am to 1:30 pm) orsend us a certified copy of the required documents by 15 January (for the enrollment in winterterms) or 15 July  (for enrollment in summerterms)and, if you wish to have them returned, a stamped and addressed return envelope.

Otherwise, the conditional admission cannot be lifted.
