Application with international educational qualifications
Applicants for bachelor's and master's programmes who did not obtain their previous educational records (certificates, diplomas) in the Federal Republic of Germany have to have their school certificates acknowledged by uni-assist. The document you receive from uni-assist (VPD - Vorprüfungsdokumentation = preliminary review documentation) can then be used to apply to us directly.
The VPD must be submitted to the TH Aschaffenburg by the end of the application period for the respective degree programme. If you have applied to uni-assist for the VPD within the application period but only receive it after the application deadline, you can submit it later by sending an email to studienbewerbung(at)th-ab.de.
Please check the website uni-assist for further information about the application form and the required documents.
Please note that uni assist charges an administration fee for their services.
Applicants for degree programmes from China, Vietnam and India can only be admitted with a certificate from the Academic Evaluation Centre of the German Embassy (APS). For a bachelor programme without admission restrictions you can apply directly at our university with this certificate. For a bachelor programme with restricted admission, a proven average grade is required.
