Methods of Payment

After you have informed yourself as to the total amount of fees, please make separate money transfers for each semester.

Please remember to leave enough time for the payment to go through to us before the application deadline.

If you are paying for several applicants, please transfer the money separately for each applicant.

We recommend separate transfers for fees per semester. Otherwise, a money transfer for several semesters at once could cause problems in the processing.

Transfer

If you transfer the money from a foreign bank, please take into account the international transaction fees charged by the bank. You have to pay the transaction fees as well, since uni-assist can only process your application if the processing fee has been paid completely!
If you transfer the money from a German bank, the international transaction fees will not be charged. It is of course possible for your friends and relatives who have a bank account in Germany to transfer the processing fee for you.
It is important that the transfer form is filled in completely, legibly and in block letters! If we are unable to assign a payment to an application because some information is missing or it is not legible, the payment cannot be registered and therefore the application will not be processed!
Concerning payment, we have another important request: if you are paying for several applicants, please transfer the money separately – one transfer form per applicant! A separate money transfer for each semester would also be rather helpful. Otherwise, a money transfer for several semesters at once could cause problems in the processing!
