North Ameriсan Studiеs

Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in American studies, British studies, or anglophone studies.

During this (undergraduate) degree, a minimum of 30 credit points (or equivalent achievements in a non-modularized program) must have been completed in the fields mentioned above: American studies, British studies or anglophone studies, among which 15 ECTS are required to have a focus on North American topics. In case the required focus on North American topics is not apparent in the diploma or transcript of records, the applicant must provide proof in an appropriate manner.

If a diploma including the final grade cannot be handed in before the deadline, enrolling in the university is still possible under the following conditions: if the application is based on a bachelor’s program with a total of 180 credit points, proof of all credits achieved, including courses that were not graded, needs to be provided, documenting a minimum of 150 completed credit points. The document must also contain an overall average grade based on the graded modules of the 150 ECTS. Provisional enrollment is possible only if all graded examinations and study credits (pass/fail, “Studienleistung”) concerning the bachelor’s degree have been completed before the start of the master’s program (appointed date: Sept. 30th if the master’s program starts in the winter semester). The final degree must be supplied by the last day of classes in the first semestеr.
