INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS FROM NON-EU/EEA COUNTRIES CHANGE OF UNIVERSITY: SUBJECTS WITHOUT ADMISSION RESTRICTIONS IN HIGHER SEMESTERS
All students who are or were enrolled at a university in another EU member state and would like to continue in a degree programme with the same name at Heidelberg University in a higher academic semester can apply for admission as a transfer student.
Application for Change of University
In order to apply for a transfer, international applicants must submit an application via the heiCO-portal of Heidelberg University. The application periods constitute a statutory cut-off period.
It is strongly recommended that applicants who would like to change their university contact the respective academic advisory service at Heidelberg University regarding the curriculum, required course assessments and offered courses prior to submitting an application.
Admission in the context of a change of university within Germany can only be granted for the next higher academic semester.
Certificate of Transferable Grades
In the case of an intended change of university from abroad, the application must generally include a notice stating recognition of credits as well as a ranking for higher academic semesters. Recognition of credits can be requested from the responsible examination office or academic advisory service of the respective subject.
