As of July 25, 2026, most German universities have closed applications for the Winter Semester 2026/27. The standard deadline was July 15, 2026.

Some universities may still consider late or extended applications for specific programs, but this is not common.

If you missed this intake, consider applying for the Summer Semester 2027 (deadlines usually November - January) or plan ahead for the next Winter Semester.
