We will carefully review your application, check if you submitted all necessary documents and if you are eligible to apply to the program.
Assuming your application is successful, we will send you a conditional offer for the program.
To accept a place in the program, you will need to submit the enrollment confirmation form and pay a deposit. The offer letter will contain the deposit amount.
You will then need to apply for your visa if applicable. With your admission letter, you are provided with a visa letter “Zulassungsbescheid” which you will need to complete your visa application. Students who require a visa for Germany should apply as soon as possible as the visa process takes time. Our visa specialists are also here to guide you and support you during the process. For more details about visa, please check here.
Advance payment of remaining fees will be required prior to your visa appointment.
Your student contract contains all relevant rights and obligations as a student at Constructor University. Review your individualized version of the student contract very carefully, sign it and send it back.
All students are required to have a laptop (incl. webcam and microphone), Smartphone (with German data plan), graphic tablet & compatible digital pen, and lastly a Smartphone tripod stand (est 180cm). All four items are needed from the start of your studies to prepare you for taking part in class and completing all assessments.
We encourage you to arrive on campus during orientation although, all pre-degree courses will be offered as hybrid until the midterm examination period. In our experience students arriving after this period will find it difficult to succeed given the high amount of workload without directed teaching sessions. The published pre-degree academic calendar guides you on the assessment dates and deadlines to enable you to plan and prepare accordingly. We look forward to seeing you on campus!
