Admissions & fees

What it costs

Macromedia is a private university of applied sciences; tuition fees apply to all students regardless of nationality. Specific fee amounts are not published on the official website - the university directs prospective students to request an information brochure or contact the advisory team. The state-imposed non-EU fee of €1,500 per semester (applicable to public universities in Baden-Württemberg from WS2017/18) does not apply here as Macromedia is a private institution with its own fee structure.

Admission requirements

The entry requirement for bachelor's programmes is a recognised high school diploma (Abitur) or advanced technical college entrance qualification (Fachhochschulreife). No minimum grade (NC) is specified. Required documents include a CV, diploma, and health insurance notification. Intakes are in April (summer semester) and October (winter semester). Language requirements for specific programmes are not listed on the official website - applicants should contact [email protected] directly. APS certificate requirements follow standard German rules: mandatory for applicants whose prior qualification is from India, China (including HK/Macau), or Vietnam before a student visa can be issued.

Application deadlines

Intakes in April (summer semester) and October (winter semester). Specific application deadline dates are not published on the official website. Applicants should contact the advisory team at [email protected] or +49 89 544 151 954 for current deadlines.

How international applicants apply

No uni-assist. Macromedia takes applications directly through its own online application portal and Student Advisory Service ([email protected]). Required documents per the official admission page: certified secondary education certificate (plus tertiary certificates if applicable), English proficiency TOEFL iBT min. 72 / IELTS min. 6.0 / equivalent incl. Burlington VTest, motivation letter and passport copy; school leaving certificates from outside Bavaria must be officially approved as equivalent where necessary. No uni-assist, VPD, APS-forwarding or Studienkolleg step appears on the official admission pages and Macromedia University is not a uni-assist member university (the similarly named 'Media University of Applied Sciences (HMKW)' on that list is a different institution).

Languages of instruction

Programmes are taught in German and English. English-medium bachelor's and master's degrees are available at the Berlin and Munich campuses, covering disciplines such as Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Brand Management, Business Management, Media and Communication Management, and several MBA tracks.

Entry requirements, intake dates and language levels differ for every degree.
