Assemble your documents
In this video you will find out
what you need to take into account when assembling your documents,
how you can check whether your chosen university accepts an online only application
and which languages you have to submit your documents in.
We process your application
in accordance with the criteria set by your chosen university.
Make sure that you find out from your chosen university
which documents you have to submit for your application.
Under “Info country by country” on our website uni-assist.de
you can also check which documents we need.
Please note: You need to submit each document once only,
even if you are applying to several universities.
Every university has different criteria for applications.
For this reason it is essential that you find out about the form
you have to submit your documents in.
Does your chosen university accept an online-only application?
Then simply upload all the required documents.
Does your chosen university require you to send us
officially certified copies of documents by post?
Then please send us officially certified copies of your certificates by post.
We must receive your
online application and all the required documents
in the correct form within the application deadline.
You will find more details about official certification standards on our website.
Here you will also find information on where you can get documents certified.
In your “Selection List” in your My assist account
you will see a note on whether your chosen university
accepts an online-only application.
Always submit your certificates in the original language they were issued in,
as well as translations of your certificates, into either German or English.
If your certificates were also officially issued in German or English,
a translation is not required.
Exceptions to this rule are listed on our website under “Info country by country”.
Please note that translations
must be made by sworn translators.
You will find more details on the standards for translations on our websites.
You will also find further information on our website
