Guidelines for International Applicants and Admitted Degree-Seeking Students

Welcome to Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences! We are delighted that you have decided to complete your studies with us!

Even if you have not yet received a letter of admission, you can already inform yourself about the following tips to ensure a smooth start of your studies in case of admission.

These giudelines give you an overview of the most important steps that can be taken during the application phase to ensure that both the move to Germany and the start of your studies are as successful as possible.

Check whether your application documents are complete

The eCampus-platform will show you whether your application is complete or whether certain documents still need to be submitted. 

If you have any questions about application documents, please contact Ms. Henrike Mielke.

Apply for an accommodation

Heilbronn University does not allocate places in the student residences. Students must apply for accommodation themselves. 

It is possible to apply for a place in the student residences of the Studierendenwerk in Heilbronn without a letter of admission. The earlier you apply, the better your chances of getting a place.

Check visa requirements and entry regulations

It is advisable to find out about entry regulations, visa requirements and booking appointments as early as possible - preferably before the application deadline.

Please note that appointments to apply for a visa at German diplomatic missions abroad can be fully booked many months in advance. Please remember to book an appointment as soon as possible.
