3) The final average grade of the undergraduate degree should be 2,5 or better according to the German grading scheme. The conversion of grades is done by means of the Modified Bavarian Formula.
4) If English is not your first language or if your bachelor degree has not been achieved in a programme taught entirely in English, additionally a sufficient knowledge of the English language (level B2 CEFR- Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) has to be documented.
