Will having a prior masters degree affect my eligibility for a two-year masters program in Germany?

Having a prior master's degree does not automatically disqualify you from applying to a two-year master's program in Germany.

Eligibility depends on the specific admission requirements for each program. Some universities may have restrictions if your previous master's is in the same or a closely related field, or they may require your background to fit the new program's focus. If your earlier degree is in a different field and you meet other criteria, you are generally eligible.
