Do I need to pay application fees and fill forms for public universities in Germany even if my percentage is below 75%?

Yes, you must pay application fees and submit application forms to public universities in Germany, regardless of your percentage.
- Application fees apply to all applicants. Many universities use uni-assist, which charges €75 for the first application and €30 for each additional one in the same semester (subject to change).
- Some universities may allow direct applications, which can have different or no fees.
A percentage below 75% does not exempt you from these requirements, but admission may be more competitive.
