Degree programs with aptitude testing

When applying for subjects with an aptitude test, the exact same admission requirements apply to all international students — regardless of whether or not they are citizens of countries belonging to the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). Please note the respective registration deadlines, which unfortunately are not always synched.

Applications, admissions and registration

1. Aptitude test via the institute

If you want to study a subject in which an aptitude test is required, you must contact the relevant institute in sufficient time. You can find out the registration dates at the respective institute!

Please note that some minor subjects also require you to pass an aptitude test or are subject to admission restrictions.

2. Admission to a degree program at LMU via the International Office

If you have passed the aptitude test at the relevant institute, it does not automatically mean that you can be registered at LMU.

For application to and registration onto your chosen degree program, you must also submit an application for admission in the form and within the deadline specified (registration) to the International Office.

Please refer to our application and registration instructions for international student applicants.
