Selection decision

The selection is made following the interview, taking into account the credits achieved to date, language skills and subject knowledge, and the impression gained from the in-person interview. Notification of possible admission is sent in writing by approx. the end of June. If necessary, acceptance for admission is given subject to the outstanding credits actually being obtained by the time the program begins in the autumn.
