From shortlist to application.

Check whether your institution uses uni-assist or accepts applications directly. For an EPOS course, follow the named course’s scholarship instructions as well as its admission rules.

Before you commit
Low public tuition does not remove the living-funds requirement. Baden-Württemberg and TUM have non-EU fee exceptions. Plan for the official visa process without assuming an appointment can be accelerated.
  1. Identify programmes that accept your qualification. Ask admissions about equivalence if your Pakistani award is not clearly listed.
  2. Read the individual course requirements and deadline. Confirm language evidence, prerequisites and any selection test.
  3. Prepare your academic records, references and personal statement. Follow the institution’s instructions for certified documents.
  4. Submit through the university or its designated national portal. Keep your account, receipts and application number.
  5. After an offer, check the student visa procedure for applicants residing in Pakistan and prepare the required financial evidence.
