Admission Requirements

Juniors, seniors and graduate students from any accredited US or Canadian college or university are eligible for admission to Junior Year in Munich programs.

Full-year Program
Application Deadline: March 15

Basic requirements:

1. at least (2) two years of college German with an average grade of at least "B" or the officially documented equivalent which is acceptable to the Program administration and to the German university.

(We look for the level of German, not the actual number of courses. For example: If you had German in high school and placed into a 2nd, 3rd, 4th semester German class when you entered college, your advanced placement counts towards fulfillment of the 2 year college language requirement.)

2. above average scholastic ability (a "B" average or better);

3. approval of the student's course of study by his/her major advisor and by the Junior Year in Munich;

4. junior status officially documented on the transcript from the home institution prior to departure for Germany (required for registration at the University of Munich).

If all or a portion of a transcript is on a Pass/No Pass grading system, students must include evaluation of their course work by their instructors. If the language requirement has been fulfilled on a Pass/No Pass basis, detailed evaluations of the coursework by the German language instructors are required.

The basic requirements for the full-year program also apply to the first semester (Wintersemester) program.
