Masters Application for International Student (Non-EU)

Hello,
I was preparing my application for a Masters in Political Science. However, I came across a few sections of the application I was not quite clear on.

There is a section that asks for information on university entrance qualification. I would like some clarity on whether that is referring to my Bachelor's degree certificate and the information related to my Bachelor's degree.

Additionally, the section that speaks about information on the course of study to date is a bit confusing to me. I would like to know if I meant to input all my semesters for the length of my bachelor's degree and also if I'm meant to add the exam section to each section since I had to write exams at the end of every semester.

Lastly, in the section that says information on Initial studies, there is a section for semester vacation and the guide text to the right of the box says "Please indicate here the number of semesters on leave." I don't quite understand that

Thank you

Hello karltayy,

due to some of your formulations, I assume you are using the automatic translation provided by your browser. I recommend to use the English version of the website instead (button ‘English’ on the top right) otherwise some of the information isn’t correctly reflected.

University entrance qualification is referring to your school leaving certificate.

"I would like to know if I meant to input all my semesters for the length of my bachelor's degree" - Yes.

"if I'm meant to add the exam section to each section since I had to write exams at the end of every semester." - I'm a bit confused about what part you are talking here. Are you still in the 'Details about previous studies' section? In general, we are only asking about your final exams.

"Lastly, in the section that says information on Initial studies, there is a section for semester vacation and the guide text to the right of the box says "Please indicate here the number of semesters on leave." I don't quite understand that" - I think it is easier to understand that part if you see this site: https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/campuscen ... ubung.html That is our definition of semester vacation. If you ever did that, please indicate in your application.

Kind regards,

Hello,

Thank you very much for your assistance. Using the English version of the website helped to clear up a lot of the confusion.

However, I still have a few questions as I do not want to make any mistakes regarding my application. Firstly, the section "Information on higher education entrance eligibility" it says the document they are looking for is commonly known as a high school diploma. My question is, as I have completed my bachelor's degree, should I reference it in that section or should I reference my high school completion certificate regardless? Also, within that section as a whole, the dropdown named "Type of higher education entrance eligibility*", I would also like some clarity on what I should select here, as my prior education was all completed in Ghana.

Lastly, the section "Details about previous studies" after entering all semesters of my Undergraduate studies, am I meant to input my final exam in my last semester or the final exam of every semester? I still did not quite understand that.

Thank you for your assistance, and I am looking forward to your response.

Kind regards,
Karltayy

Dear Karltayy,

"Firstly, the section "Information on higher education entrance eligibility" it says the document they are looking for is commonly known as a high school diploma. My question is, as I have completed my bachelor's degree, should I reference it in that section or should I reference my high school completion certificate regardless? Also, within that section as a whole, the dropdown named "Type of higher education entrance eligibility*", I would also like some clarity on what I should select here, as my prior education was all completed in Ghana."

You can choose your school certificate and "Abroad - higher education entrance from abroad"

"Lastly, the section "Details about previous studies" after entering all semesters of my Undergraduate studies, am I meant to input my final exam in my last semester or the final exam of every semester? I still did not quite understand that."

This refers to your Bachelor studies and you should input the cummulative grade of this degree.
