What is the full four-step dMAT and APS process from start to finish?

Your dMAT and APS journey runs through four clear steps, and skipping the order can waste both your time and your EUR 150 fee (roughly Rs 14,000). Start with the free check, register only once you know you should, sit the exam, then attach the certificate to your APS file.

The Four Steps and 2026 Dates

Who This Applies To

• Required for applicants applying for the Summer Semester 2027 intake.
• Not required for Winter 2026/2027 applicants, undergraduate applicants, or PhD applicants.
• Not required if you already hold a valid, existing APS certificate.
• Registration opened on 29 June 2026, so mark your calendar well before the September deadline.

My Advice

Do step one this week, even if your exam feels far away. An anabin check takes minutes and costs nothing, while a registration fee once paid is only partly refundable. Build a simple checklist with these four dates pinned above your desk so the September deadline never sneaks up on you.
