Application deadline
The degree programme CTS is only offered in the winter semester.
Applications for the degree programme Computer Science (CTS) at Ulm University of Applied Sciences can be made until July 15th.
This is a cut-off date. That means applications which are received
later or do not contain all the required documents will not be
considered, even if missing the deadline was not your fault. The
relevant date is the date when your application reaches the University
of Applied Sciences. The date of the postmark is irrelevant. Since your
application can only be processed if all the documentation is complete
and submitted by the deadline, we recommend that you apply early so that
any questions arising can be clarified in time before the close of
applications.
Recognition of your certificates by the
“Studienkolleg Konstanz” can take some weeks, and if one or more
documents are missing, it will take even longer. Therefore
we advise you to start this paperwork as soon as possible, since you
need to have this certificate in order to apply through
hochschulstart.de

• Completed form regarding your level of German language skills
• Statement of Purpose (your motivation to study Computer Science at Ulm University of Applied Sciences)

Please do not submit any original documents with your application.
