Please upload the proof of English proficiency as a PDF document. Please note that screenshots are not accepted.

At Constructor University, we believe in getting to know our applicants on a more personal level through a comprehensive essay. The essay should delve into your interests and motivation for choosing our university program. You can showcase your passions, highlight their alignment with our academic offerings, and demonstrate how you will contribute to the vibrant campus community at Constructor University.

For the Fall 2023 intake, Constructor University does not require SAT/ACT scores for admission evaluation. Applicants have the choice to submit their application without a standardized test.

However, if admitted, enrollment may require standardized testing if the high school diploma does not grant direct admission to a German university. Applications without standardized test scores will be assessed based on the personal essay, academic achievements, extracurricular activities, and overall presentation throughout the application process.

If conditional admission is granted, it is recommended to take the SAT/ACT before arrival, although on-campus testing options and complementary test preparation may be available for those who choose to take it later.

Students who have sat for SAT/ACT should submit their test as a PDF. Screenshots are not accepted.

A recommendation letter is optional/upon request. This should ideally come from a school official, such as a teacher, career/guidance counselor, head of school or principal.

If you are in a possession of a recommendation letter and you would like to submit it, please upload it as part of your application. If you are not in a possession of a recommendation letter, make sure to include the name of your counselor in the designated area on the application portal.
