    During the selection process, your uploaded documents will be used as the basis for an individual assessment of whether you meet the admission requirements according to the relevant curriculum. If an admission interview is scheduled for the selected continuing education study program, you will be invited to an individual meeting (video conference or on-site appointment) by the responsible study program director. During this interview, the course content will be compared with your expectations and continuing education goals.

Once the tuition fee has been received, admission to the course is legally effective.
