Accessible entrance exam/aptitude test procedure
It is important to us that all prospective students have equal access to our range of degree programmes. Does a disability or impairment limit your ability to take part in the entrance exam/aptitude test procedure? We will provide you with individual support and adapt the test to your needs.
On this page, we will show you what you need to bear in mind, how to report your needs and what deadlines apply. Please let us know your needs directly when you submit your application so that we can work together to create the best possible conditions for you.
