Applications to universities and teacher training colleges
The recognition and application procedures are not separate. The institute of higher education you wish to attend will examine your higher education entrance qualification as part of its student admission procedure.
Applications to universities of applied sciences, art colleges or the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University
The recognition and application procedures are separate. First you must apply to have one of the central authorities recognise your higher education entrance certificate and confirm your language skills.
If this application is successful, you can then apply for a study place as the next step.
Ask the competent authority directly for precise information about the procedure. You will usually find the forms required in the internet.
You will find the addresses and websites of the institutes of higher education at www.studieninfo-bw.de and www.study-guide-bw.de.
