Admissions & fees

What it costs

Tuition: €1,050 per semester for both bachelor's and master's programmes (not tuition-free). Students who volunteer approximately three hours per week on campus tasks (gardening, cleaning, library) receive a volunteer allowance of €420 per semester, reducing the effective cost to approximately €630 per semester. Members of Freie evangelische Gemeinden can receive a church loan of €500 per semester, forgiven upon employment within the FEG network. BAföG state funding and the Deutschlandstipendium are available under standard conditions. No separate non-EU surcharge is listed on the official site.

Admission requirements

For the bachelor's programmes, applicants need either the Abitur/Fachabitur or a Realschulabschluss combined with a completed vocational qualification graded 2.5 or better. A church-track pathway exists for applicants without standard qualifications, but results in a church certificate rather than a state-recognised degree. For the master's programmes, a bachelor's degree in Evangelical Theology with a minimum GPA of 3.2 (German scale) and knowledge of biblical Greek and Hebrew are required. The application process involves submitting a questionnaire, handwritten motivation statement, CV, certified credentials, and references from three church community members, followed by a faculty interview. All instruction and application materials are in German; strong German proficiency is a prerequisite. APS certificate is required for applicants whose prior qualification is from India, China, or Vietnam before applying for a student visa. No specific annual deadline is published; the institution recommends applying by mid-June for the winter semester.

Application deadlines

No binding deadline is published. The institution recommends submitting applications by mid-June for planning purposes (presumed winter-semester start). Contact the Studienbüro directly for confirmation.

How international applicants apply

No uni-assist. Applications are sent directly to the Studienbüro by post or email: application questionnaire (with photo), tabular CV, handwritten CV explaining the motivation for ministry-oriented study, certified copies of school/vocational certificates. The college then requests references from three people named in the questionnaire (church elder/board members) and an interview with two members of the teaching body follows; decisions come from the Kollegium, usually about a week after the visitor week/interview.

Languages of instruction

German - programmes train pastors, missionaries and congregation ministers for German free churches.

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