Your plan as an Indian applicant
- 1
Get your English score
You need at least IELTS 5.5, TOEFL iBT 72 or PTE 59 (CEFR B2). For the winter intake (1 February to 15 March), take the test at least 3 months earlier so a retake still fits. For the student visa from India, the German missions accept IELTS, TOEFL or Cambridge (not older than 1 year) and do not recognise PTE, Duolingo or TOEFL home edition, so IELTS or TOEFL covers both steps.
- 2
Check your degree and grade
The programme asks for 2.7 or better on the German scale (1.0 is best). German universities convert your CGPA and check that your Bachelor's covers enough of the subject for Energy & Environment. A 3-year Bachelor's is accepted by some programmes and not others.
