1. completed Personal Information Sheet (attached in screenshots)

and scans of the following documents:

2. CV

3. proof of previously obtained university degrees and study records (transcripts) which indicate all courses taken and grades obtained.

4. proof of English language skills (CEFR Level B2, IELTS Band 7.0, TOEFL iBT 90, or TOEFL PBT 575; no CET)

5. proof of GRE General Test Scores in the upper 75th percentile if your degree is from a university outside the European Union and without a formal Partnership / Learning Agreement with the University of Bayreuth.

We additionally require proof of basic German language skills (CEFR Level A1). This requirement is waived if you have obtained a high school or university degree in a German language program in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland. If you cannot provide proof now then you will have to provide it within one year after enrollment. So you may also apply without German language skills, but then you will need to learn some German in parallel to your studies in economics.

For any official document that is not already in German or English, we require not only a scan of the original but also of an official translation into German or English.

The complete set of documents, in the above order, is to be submitted as a single PDF file which is attached to an e-mail with subject line "Application for admission - MSc Economics" to the following e-mail address:

[email protected]

In case that your previous degree is recognized as a comparable one for the program’s purposes, you will receive a short e-mail notification. Moreover, an official Letter of Admission will be issued automatically and sent to your address of residence in May/November for the next winter/summer term. This can be used by non-EU citizens in order to apply for a visa. Originals of the submitted documents must be presented upon enrollment.
