Hi Aditya,

In Germany, most universities require 16 years of education for a Master’s program. However, some universities may accept 15 years of education for admission to a Master’s program.

If you have 15 years of education, as an international student you must apply for a 1-year prep course known as Studienkolleg and clear the final exam known as Feststellungsprüfung.

While the path to a master’s in Germany can sometimes be complicated, there are opportunities to explore. Navigating these options can be easier with the right support. Consult with a study abroad expert today who understands German education requirements can make this process smoother for you.

Hi,

Yes, 15 years of education is generally accepted for pursuing a master's degree in Germany, both in public and private universities. However, it's important to note that specific requirements may vary depending on the university and the program you're applying to.

Here's what you need to know:

  • 15 or 16 years of education: German universities typically accept students with either 15 or 16 years of prior education.
  • Individual university requirements: Each university has its own specific admission criteria, so it's crucial to check the requirements of the programs you're interested in.    
  • APS Certificate: Indian students often need to obtain an APS Certificate from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) to verify their academic qualifications.

I would suggest you to get free counseling from a study abroad consultant for applying for your desired universities.
