If you have applied for multiple degree programmes or to multiple universities, you must arrange these applications in your preferred order, placing the university you would most like to attend at the top.

Please note: It is extremely important that you manually arrange your applications in order of priority, otherwise the applications will simply be arranged in chronological order.

Please observe the information about prioritising on this topic at hochschulstart.de.

Offers of admission will presumably be available in your hochschulstart.de account beginning in mid to late July.

Please ensure that you log into your hochschulstart.de account regularly and also regularly check your email inbox. Your hochschulstart.de account will provide you with an overview of all of your offers of admission from different universities.

More information about monitoring your applications is available on hochschulstart.de.

If you have received an offer of admission from the university you wish to attend, you can immediately accept that offer. Or you will receive automatic admission depending on hochschulstart.de’s coordination regulations. In each case, your study place is secure.

However, upon accepting an offer, you will be deemed to have completed the procedure and all other offers of admission and applications submitted within the scope of the dialogue-oriented service procedure will be deleted.

In the event of automatic admission to a degree programme at the Ohm, you will find your admission letter in StudyOhm.

Please be sure to take note of the details of the dialogue-oriented service procedure rules on hochschulstart.de, so that you can receive the admission for the degree programme you prefer.

If you have not received an offer for admission on hochschulstart by the end of the coordination phase, your status will be changed to ‘Rejected’. Hochschulstart will generate a rejection letter for each application with the status ‘rejected’. Rejected applications may be considered in wait-list procedures, if study places remain open.

Please keep official letters in your files, in case you need to present them at a later date (e.g., public authorities). Neither the Technische Hochschule Nürnberg nor hochschulstart will produce duplicates.

Now you simply need to complete your binding enrolment (matriculate) at the Ohm in the degree programme for which you have received an offer of admission that you have accepted online. You will only become a member of the Technische Hochschule Nürnberg Georg Simon Ohm, and gain student status once you have enrolled.
