Minimum requirements to apply for a Master’s program at TUM are a recognized undergraduate degree (e.g. a Bachelor’s) and the successful completion of the aptitude assessment procedure. The aptitude assessment allows the TUM school to which you are applying to evaluate your individual talents and motivation for study.
During the application period, you must apply through the [TUMonline application portal](https://www.tum.de/en/studies/application/application-inf...) and upload your application documents.
If you receive an offer of admission, you will additionally have to submit individual documents as [notarized hardcopies](https://www.tum.de/en/studies/application/application-inf...) by post to be enrolled.
Generally, applicants with a qualification for postgraduate studies (e.g. a Bachelor’s) obtained outside of the EU / EEA must have their documents [reviewed in advance through uni-assist.](https://www.tum.de/en/studies/application/application-inf...)
First, your grades from your Bachelor’s degree are evaluated according to a point system. Furthermore, a performance survey is conducted for all applicants in the form of a written test. The score from stage 1 is derived from the performance in the Bachelor’s program as well as the results of the test. Depending on the score, applicants are either admitted immediately, rejected, or invited to an admission interview (stage 2).
In stage 2, specialized knowledge is tested orally. The result of the selection interview as well as the achievements from the Bachelor’s studies are evaluated. Depending on the score, applicants are either admitted or rejected.
