Notes on documents

If you have a General Certificate of Education with Advanced Levels or International Advanced Levels, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • Your official General Certificate of Education – Advanced Level or International Advanced Level, showing all of your final A Level results

Until the final certificates are issued, we can also accept the following documents:

  • Statements of Results issued by the awarding bodies
  • Statements of Results issued by the examination centres containing the following information:
    • Exam session
    • Awarding body
    • Level of qualification (AS or A)
    • Results
    • Name and centre number of the examination centre
    • Candidate name and number

Predicted grades issued by your school are not sufficient for a university application in Germany. This means that you will only be able to meet the university's application deadline if the awarding body publishes your A Level results before the deadline and you submit the Statements of Results to uni-assist before the application deadline.

Please always submit all of your A Levels because we can only determine which A Levels can be taken into consideration for a specific application once we have completed our evaluation of your certificates.

AS Levels cannot be taken into consideration. For more information about this, please visit: anabin.kmk.org

If you have a BTEC, you will need to submit the following documents:

If you hold a bachelor‘s degree from a British university and your transcript/Diploma Supplement does not specify the name of the teaching institution, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • Official letter from your university confirming the name of the teaching institution or campus at which you completed the modules/courses listed on your transcript

Separate written confirmation is also required if you have studied in the UK but your transcript does not specify the name of your teaching institution/campus.
Neither a document specifying the “awarding institution“ or the “institution administrating studies“ nor confirmation that you were registered as a student there is sufficient as the awarding/administrating institution may differ from the teaching institution.

If your transcript / Diploma Supplement does not contain a numerical average mark for your degree, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • Confirmation of your numerical average mark, issued by the British university

It is not sufficient to provide proof of how the British university calculates your overall grade.

If you hold a bachelor‘s degree from a British university and have completed all or part of your studies at another institution, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • transcript of records from the teaching institution showing all of the modules/courses which were recognised by the British university
  • Confirmation from the British university of the teaching institution at which you completed the modules/courses which were recognised for your degree

If you hold a top-up degree from a British university, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • Degree certificate(s) and a full transcript of records for all qualifications used for admission to the top-up degree programme (e.g. BTECs, other professional diplomas/certificates or advanced/higher diplomas, etc.)
  • Official letter from your university confirming the name of the institution or campus at which the top-up degree modules/courses listed on your transcript were taught

If you hold a double degree awarded by a British university and a university outside of the UK, you will need to submit the following documents:

  • Degree certificates from both universities
  • Transcripts of records from both universities
  • If applicable for your country: APS certificate

You must submit a transcript of records from the British university even if the transcript issued by the non-British university lists your grades using the British grading system.
