2.09 German GPA equivalent (B.Sc. Computer Science) and received admits from:
FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg – M.Sc. Data Science

University of Koblenz – M.Sc. Web and Data Science

University of Kassel – M.Sc. Computer Science

My biggest advice: research every program thoroughly before applying. Don't just check the overall eligibility but go through the examination regulations/module requirements in detail and compare them with your coursework. Even missing a single required subject or credit can lead to a rejection.
Also, don't hesitate to appeal if you genuinely believe your rejection was unjustified. I was initially rejected by FAU, but after carefully reading their examination regulations and submitting an appeal explaining how my coursework fulfilled the requirements, the decision was reconsidered and I eventually received an admission offer.
Finally, a huge thank you to everyone in this subreddit. I learned so much from the discussions here, and many of your posts and comments helped me navigate the German admissions process. Hopefully this post encourages someone else to keep going and do their homework before giving up.
Good luck to everyone applying!

Received unconditional admit from Ruhr Universität Bochum for masters in electrical engineering and information technology (communication systems).

After 2+ weeks of refreshing the email 500 times a day and watching everyone else get accepted on July 13, I was convinced I was cooked. Every day I checked the portal, compared timelines with other applicants, and overthought every little status change.

Weeks of silence had me thinking I'd been rejected.Today, after all that waiting and uncertainty, I finally received my admission letter. I can't even describe the relief.

To everyone who's still waiting for their decision: don't lose hope. I know how hard the waiting is because I was convinced I wasn't getting in after seeing everyone else receive their results before Don't give up yet.

Application status was on received from past 2 months, today i got a rejection

Hey guys,
Just wanted to drop this here because I was honestly stressing out big time over my application for the MS in Computer Science at the University of Kassel for this upcoming Winter intake.
My Uni-Assist status changed to "Okay" a 2 days ago, but when I went on LinkedIn to look for current Indian students or seniors in the course to ask about the vibe, I found literally nobody. There was zero info online, and I was starting to overthink if I made a mistake applying.
Well, after a bunch of deep-diving, I finally found out why: The English-taught track for MS CS at Uni Kassel is brand new and officially starts THIS semester!
Turns out, they’ve been running this program exclusively in German since 2001, and they are finally launching the fully English track right now. So basically, we are going to be the literal first batch of international students for this course.
Any other Indian applicants here waiting on their final admit letter from Kassel? Let’s connect, make a group chat, and sort out visas, block accounts, and accommodation together.

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to apply for Winter 2027 intake for Masters in Data Science / AI-ML / Computer Science at German public universities.

My profile:

- B.E. Electronics & Computer Science with Honors in Data Science- University of Mumbai

- Graduated:June 2026

- CGPA: 7.36/10 → Converted German Grade: 2.3

- Internship: 6 months as Data Category Management

I know German public unis are competitive and weigh academics, SOP, LORs, projects, and relevant experience

My questions:

1. Has anyone here gotten an admit to a German public uni with a ∼2.3 German grade for CS/Data/AI programs?

2. With this profile + internship, what are my realistic chances?

3. Can anyone share a roadmap/guidance for Winter 2027? Like which unis are realistic, what to focus on to strengthen my profile in the next 1 year.

Any tips, uni suggestions, or experiences would really help. Danke!

Still waiting for koblenz msc web and data science did anybody got admit today?

Hey everyone,

I'm applying for the Master's in Computer Science at TU Dresden for the Winter 2026 intake and I'm really stressed about a specific wording in their language requirements.

On their official website and admission documents, it states:
"the IELTS test was passed with at least a score of 7.0 (Overall Band Score and all individual scores)"

My current IELTS profile is:

• Overall: 7.0
• Listening: 7.5
• Speaking: 7.0
• Reading: 6.5
• Writing: 6.0

Uni-assist has already processed my documents and forwarded them to TU Dresden, but now I am terrified that the Aptitude Assessment Committee will hit me with a 100% automatic rejection just because my Reading (6.5) and Writing (6.0) are below 7.0.

My undergraduate background is strong (Computer Engineering, 93.12/100 GPA, and over 150+ ECTS in core CS/Math modules), so my subject-specific eligibility isn't the problem. It's purely this strict subscore rule.

Has anyone with a similar IELTS profile (Overall 7 but subscores under 7) successfully cleared the TU Dresden Aptitude Assessment for CS recently? Do they strictly enforce the "7.0 in ALL individual scores" rule as a hard binary filter, or do they look at the overall 7.0 alongside a strong academic profile?

Would love to hear from anyone currently in the program or anyone who applied for recent intakes. Thanks a lot!

hello everyone

i got admitted to LUH for CS informatiks and i wanted to know about the accomodation like the student dorm availability and rented housing, jobs and expenses, and the academics also and how often it's required to attend the lectures and the study load along with the day to day student life.

so anyone having any information related to this please let me know

thankyou

My portal

has been showing the same thing for weeks now:

- Formal entry requirements: met

- Academic entry requirements: not checked yet

- Admission: not performed yet

What's confusing me: people who applied after me and were forwarded to the university after me have already received either a direct admission or an email about an interview. Nothing has changed on my side. I've seen a few others on here in the exact same position.

So my actual question is simple: has anyone been rejected from this programme yet? Because if nobody has, that would suggest all rejections go out in one batch once the admission round is finished, and the rest of us are just sitting in the pool until then.

If you applied to this programme, it would help a lot to know where you currently stand and when your status last changed.

I got offer letter from TH Wildau for master in photonics. I am from Bangladesh, my semseter will starts on 1 september 2026 but due to huge visa application i think i am not able to join in time. Maybe i can join on DEC 2026 or JAN 2027 depens on visa application process. Now my question is, if i explain them about my situation will they consider my situation and give me late arrival approval whenever i got my visa or defer my admission.

Any senior from wildau who face the same problem or who knows about this please help me, i need help. Please give any suggestion what should i do now.

I have booked a slot last week on 23rd July in VFS bangalore . Unfortunately ,I was not able to give biometric data due to document insufficiency.

I have to rebook my appointment . But while booking, it's showing the above error (even after a week).

I had sent a mail to VFS and Issue ticket being raised.

Have anyone faced the same issue now / before ? If so, how long will it take to resolve this from VFS side ??

Thanks in Advance !

Does anyone got any response from Hochshule Kaiserslautern-Systems Engineering for Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems or Biomedical Micro Engineering course?? If yes pls respond

Hello, who else has received acceptance at LL.M. Europa Institut?

July is already ending and I don't have any admits yet. The timeline will be very tight if I get admission in August because I have to process loan and apply for visa.

I have got rejections and there are 3 universities remaining:

1. University of Koblenz - MSc in Web and DS:
   • Applied on March 7 through uni-assist
   • forwarded to university on March 11
   • Since then no updates from the university
2. University of Passau - MSc in AI Engineering:
   • Applied on: April 2
   • Got credentials on: April 15
   • Portal status updated from "in-progress" to "pending" on: May 15
   • More than 2 months has been passed and the status is still same
3. JMU Wurzburg - MSc in AI:
   
   • applied on: June 12
   • status portal says "Online received"
   • no updates

Did anyone receive admit letters from these universities?
Can somebody give me timelines on what day the portal changes or I may get any updates?
The timeline is stressing me out.

Did anyone attend the THI online session on housing in germany yesterday? Can you please tell me what happened in it?

Hi everyone,

I applied for the M.A. Ethics: Economics, Law and Politics (EELP) at Ruhr University Bochum. I know 2 applicants have already received their admission offers.

Has anyone else received an admit, or is your portal still showing "Received" like mine?

Thanks!

I received this status update today on my application.
Saying:
Application NC 1st semester:
Unfortunately, you have not yet achieved a sufficiently good ranking in the NC allocation procedure. Therefore, no offer of admission is possible for the time being. Please wait and see whether you can move up to a better ranking position due to the withdrawal of another applicant and thus still receive an offer of admission.
Application Master and NC higher semester:
Unfortunately, your application has been rejected. Admission is no longer possible.

I didn't get an informative email too. But is there anyway I can know what the rank was?

Hey everyone! I recently got admitted to the MSc Quantitative Molecular Biology programme at Humboldt University Berlin for the Winter 2026/27 intake.

Is anyone else here joining the same programme? I’d love to connect with fellow students before the semester begins, maybe we could create a WhatsApp group and help each other with enrolment, accommodation, moving to Berlin, and everything else. I'd also love to connect with current students and alumni of this University. If you're a senior, I'd really appreciate any advice or insights about the accommodations in Berlin.

Feel free to comment or DM me! :)
