Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Eduardo Cifuentes, I am from Colombia and I’m interested in studying Medicine in your esteemed university. In this moment I am in second year of Medicine in Colombia, but taking into account that my mother, her husband and my sister, are living in Germany, in Hamburg, I had the opportunity to go there and know this great country. Therefore, I realized that there are better opportunities for me in Germany in order to be a very good doctor with a qualified education and to serve in a better way the community.

Therefore, please can you inform me which are the requirements to get the admission to the faculty of medicine, the deadlines and all the related information.

Thanks in advance for your attention and quick response.

I look forward to hearing from you…

Best regards,

Dear Mr. Cifuentes,

To apply to Universität Hamburg as an international applicant, you need to have your documents checked in a "preliminary documentation" procedure by uni-assist e. V. (University Application Service for International Students). uni-assist determines whether your previous educational qualifications permit you to start studying in your program of choice in Germany. Detailed information about this procedure is provided here:https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/campuscen ... ldung.html.
uni-assist requires your high school diploma and aditionally all documents from previous studies.

Please notice that Universität Hamburg offers first degree programs taught in German language only.
