2. Optional: Submit the request form for application confirmation

Only necessary if you want to apply for a study preparation visa.

Do you want to apply for a study preparation visa? Then a check of your documents may be useful.

The confirmation of application states that you are qualified to take up studies at the TU Braunschweig or in Germany following the German course.

The application confirmation is not a conditional admission!

For the issuance of the application confirmation there are additional costs of 75.00 Euro, which have to be transferred together with the course fee.

Please fill out the application for an application confirmation and submit this with your resume and appropriate school transcripts.

If you have already completed a course of study or university entrance examination, please also send us the supporting documents and certificates with a summary of grades.

Required documents:

Optional:

  • Copy of the original certificate of passing the university entrance examination and translation
  • Copies of university certificates with transcripts of records, including all subjects taken and grades, in the original and translation

Please understand that it takes some time to check your documents. If you already have an embassy appointment, please contact us directly and let us know so that we can try to issue the documents in time.
