Application and admission

For the winter semester

If you have a German higher education entrance qualification and meet the admission requirements, you should first register in the portal Hochschulstart.de and then apply in CampInO.

Please note:
If you have already been enrolled at a German university in the course of study for which you wish to apply, or if you can be placed in a higher subject-related semester on the basis of creditable academic achievements, you can only apply as an advanced student. In this case, admission as a first-year student is not possible according to the study place allocation regulations.

For the summer semester

If you have a German higher education entrance qualification and meet the admission requirements, apply in CampInO.

If you have already concluded a contract for training or study with a cooperation partner of the HSB, you can submit your application in CampInO.

If you have a German Bachelor’s degree and meet the admission requirements for the programme you are applying for, you can submit your application in CampingO.

Please, apply directly to the International Graduate Center (IGC)  and register in CampInO after you have been admitted and paid the deposit.

You have already studied at another university or in another subject? Have you completed vocational training or gained experience in other contexts that fit in with your studies?

It is quite possible that you already possess knowledge and skills that can be recognised as equivalent learning outcomes of a module in the subject you wish to study.

Equivalent learning outcomes

Pursuant to the Bremen University Act, the Examination Regulations of the Hochschule Bremen, and the European Credit Transfer System ECTS it is possible to apply for recognition of equivalent course work and examinations undertaken at other universities.

Coursework and examination achievements are considered to be equivalent if they approximate in content, scope and requirements to those of the corresponding degree programme at the university you are applying for.

The examination board decides on the recognition of previously completed coursework and examination achievements after the necessary documents have been submitted, and the subject representatives have been heard. The recognition procedure begins after enrolment at the Hochschule Bremen has taken place.

If you have been removed from the student register at a university or university of applied sciences due to irrevocably failing a last attempt at an examination, you can no longer study the same or a related degree programme.
