Application deadlines
Before applying,
please make sure to read the full enrolment procedure carefully. Some steps have important deadlines, depending on your nationality, programme type and start date (September or February).
Why applying early matters
We strongly advise you to apply as early as possible. This gives us enough time to finalise your enrolment, tuition fee payment, and student housing or visa arrangements if needed.
Applying late can cause delays or limitations, especially for international students who need a visa or housing.
Check your deadline!
Tip: Always apply early — it increases your chance of getting a place, housing, and a smooth start to your studies.

We advise you to apply as early as possible.
In most cases, you can still apply until the final deadline (e.g. 31 August or 15 August).
However, applying late might mean fewer housing options or delays with your enrolment.
