Bachelor-and Diploma Studies

Application for a bachelor's or diploma degree program

You must submit an application so that we can check whether an admission is possible.

The application is deemed to have been submitted if:

  1. You have a basic account. You can create a basic account here.
  2. You have uploaded an application for the degree program you would like to study via the basic account
  3. You have uploaded the required, correct, original documents as PDF in your online application

Applications that are not complete cannot be processed! So make sure that you fulfill all 3 points.

Here you will find the instructions for the online pre-registration: data capture for prospective students who do not yet have a basic account.

No, this is not possible. As the legalization must be checked by us, the original documents must be submitted.

If the original documents are not issued in German or English, a translation must also be provided. The translation can be in German or English. The translation does not replace the original. Both must be submitted.

The translation must be prepared by a court-certified translator.

Translations from Austria as well as from abroad are accepted.

Foreign documents generally only have the same evidential value as domestic public documents if they hold the mandatory legalisation on the original documents. The necessary legalisation depends on the country the document was issued in.

Detailed information about the necessary legalisation can be found here.

The legalization must always be affixed to the original document. Documents without the required legalization cannot be considered for admission.

Language certificates do not have to be legalized.

No! Applications that are not submitted completely and correctly will not be processed or must be rejected. A new application for the same degree programme in the same semester is then no longer possible. Therefore, do not apply until you have all documents, certifications and language certificates. Only complete applications will be processed!

Some studies have restricted admission. This means that you must also take part in an admission procedure for these studies.

The admission procedure is carried out by a different department. If you have any questions about the admission procedure, please contact the relevant department: https://studienzugang.uni-graz.at/de/

Affected degree programs can be found here:

Bachelor's degree programs with restricted admission: https://studienzugang.uni-graz.at/de/ 
Teacher training programs with restricted admission: https://www.zulassunglehramt.at/

ATTENTION: The application for the admission procedure and the general application process are independent of each other. This means that it is also possible to go through the general application process before taking part in the admission procedure.

Especially for international applicants who have to attend the preparatory course, this means that they have to make sure to complete the admission procedure for the academic year in which they will complete the preparatory course.

 

No, this is actually prohibited by law! When applying via an agency, the applicant is excluded from applying for two semesters.

Information regarding the upload of documents

Please ensure that only documents of sufficient quality can be processed. Missing or poor-quality documents can lead to longer processing times and, as a result, even to the rejection of the application.

Therefore, make sure that the respective documents meet the following aspects:

  • All pages (front and back) of the documents are included
  • The writing is legible (not blurred, not too small)
  • Stamps, signatures and, if applicable, legalizations are fully recognisable (not cut off at the edge)
  • The document must not contain any etchings, manual changes, etc
  • Documents that are not in German or English must be uploaded as one PDF file containing the original and the relevant translation
  • You have signed the application form yourself
