Admission requirements:

In order to be admitted to an audition, applicants have to be generally qualified to enter higher education, as well as having proof of appropriate artistic ability. Eligibility to enter higher education generally means an Abitur certificate or equivalent.  This requirement may be waived if the candidate displays exceptional artistic talent (min. 19 out of a maximum 25 points in the audition). This does not apply to teacher training courses! Artistic talent is determined in an audition (Aufnahmeprüfung).

Deadlines for application:

For the summer semester: December 1 of the previous year
For the winter semester: April 1 of the year applied for
