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 (until 15 July), 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.

Check your degree and grade
German universities convert your CGPA and check that your Bachelor's covers enough of the subject for Computer Science & IT. A 3-year Bachelor's is accepted by some programmes and not others.

Get your APS certificate (and check the dMAT)
Indian applicants need the APS certificate for the student visa; most universities also ask for it with the application, so check what Chemnitz University of Technology asks for on the official page. A new admission test, the dMAT, is being introduced for some Indian applicants; check whether it applies to your degree and intake.
