Application Documents

University Entrance Examination

In German Hochschulzugangsberechtigung (HZB): This proves that you have reached a sufficient level of schooling to attend a higher education institution in Germany. If you did not earn your HZB in Germany, then you must apply through uni-assist so that the equivalency of your international HZB can be established. Uni-assist establishes equivalency based on official guidelines from the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs (Kultusministerkonferenz), the German Rectors Conference (Hochschulrectorenkonferenz) and the Central Office for Foreign Education (Zentralstelle für ausländisches Bildungswesen).

Proof of Professional Experience

All students at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences must complete an 8-week internship before the end of the third semester. It is often easier for international applicants – particularly those who speak little to no German – to complete this mandatory requirement in their home country before applying. For more details and additional requirements, please see the examination regulations of your desired study program.

Once you have completed this requirement, you can request an official recognition form from your faculty. Important: If your internship is not recognized by the end of the third semester, you will automatically be deregistered as a student.
