Hochschulstart – Foundation for University Admissions (only available in German)

  • Iceland
  • Liechtenstein
  • Norway

If you have dual nationality, the German/EU/EEA nationality always takes precedence

How should I apply

In Germany, the procedure for applications for a place on a Human Medicine course and selection of students is centralised rather than handled directly by the universities. However, it depends on your nationality as well as where you acquired your higher education entrance qualification whether you need to apply to the Stiftung für Hochschulzulassung (Hochschulstart) or to uni-assist e. V. 

If you have already started your study programme at a different university and would like to switch to Oldenburg, you can apply for a higher semester. In this case, you must apply via an online portal of the University of Oldenburg.
