It depends. Not all German universities require a minimum of 65% for business courses.

- Some universities do set a minimum percentage or GPA, and 65% is a common benchmark for competitive programs.
- Others, like the University of Duisburg-Essen, have no strict GPA cutoff for business administration.
- Many institutions also consider factors such as work experience, statement of purpose, and recommendation letters.

With a 53% undergraduate score, options may be limited at universities with higher requirements, but some programs may still be accessible.
