When should I start the documentation process for the October 2024 intake in Germany?
23 Jun 2026 · Answered by Bhuvaneswari Gobinathan · 1 min read
The October 2024 intake in Germany has already passed. For future intakes, it's best to start your documentation process 12 to 18 months in advance.
This early start gives you enough time to:
- Obtain the APS certificate (required for Indian students)
- Prepare academic and financial documents
- Complete language proficiency tests
- Meet university deadlines (typically May - July for October intakes; subject to change)
If you're targeting the October 2027 intake, you should begin preparations between December 2025 and March 2026. For detailed guidance on your next steps, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
