Assessment fee

The University of Kaiserslautern must charge a fee for the verification and acceptance of foreign qualifications and certificates in accordance with the Special Schedule of Fees (“Besonderes Gebührenverzeichnis”) of Rhineland-Palatinate which comes into force in the summer semester 2005.

There are the following exceptions:

Exchange students, for example, partner schools or ERASMUS students.

Scholarship holders (DAAD).

Foreign applicants with an intermediate diploma of a German university, who wish to continue their studies in the same study course.

These applicants do not need to pay a fee.

The following concerns all other foreigners applying for a university place:After having sent the application documents, the University of Kaiserslautern will confirm receipt and will send a request for payment in the amount of € 50.00 (assessment fee).

You should transfer this fee as soon as possible. Only after receipt of your payment can your application be processed. Payment does not automatically mean that you have been accepted. Your application is only successful if your documents correspond to our university standards.

Please transfer the assessment fee only on demand of payment.

Please apply as soon as possible to ensure that your assessment fee is transferred in time, and to enable the administrators to request any documents which might possibly be missing before the matriculation deadline.

The responsible administrators will then assess whether you have the necessary certificates to take up your studies at the University of Kaiserslautern and will then send you their written approval or rejection.
