What is the impact of my academic percentages (bachelor's and intermediate) on my Germany study visa process?
27 Jul 2026 · Answered by Vandna Rani · 1 min read
Your academic percentages directly affect your chances for a Germany study visa.
- Master’s programs: Most German universities require at least 70% in your bachelor’s degree for admission. University admission is a key step for the visa process, so falling below this threshold may limit your options.
- Undergraduate programs: As of March 15, 2026, Indian students need at least 70% in 12th grade (all boards) to get the mandatory APS (Academic Evaluation Centre) certificate, which is required for university admission and the study visa.
With 68% in your bachelor’s and 58% in 12th, you may face challenges meeting standard entry requirements.
