Admission-restricted degree programmes

The prerequisite for enrolment is that you have applied, have been admitted and have accepted the study place within the deadline.

  • Application for enrolment

    1. Your admission letter, including the enrolment deadline and other information, is available in the info portal of application.
    2. You complete the online enrolment in the info portal of the application (button: Online enrolment) and note down the initial password as a new student (necessary for activating your account in SelfService).
    3. You will receive an email with your enrolment form, your enrolment number and important information about the further necessary steps.
    4. You log in to the info portal of enrolment and upload the required documents on time.
    5. Your enrolment application will then be reviewed by the Student Admissions Office:
    • if your enrolment has been approved, you will receive an email with information on how to proceed

    OR

    • if your enrolment is still incorrect/incomplete, you will receive an email about the changed enrolment status. You will immediately log in to the info portal of enrolment and upload the missing documents.
  • Examination and approval of enrolment

    You will also find this information in the email you received from the Student Admissions Office after your enrolment has been conducted.

    1. You log in to the infoportal of enrolment and have your enrolment confirmation sent to you by email (button: Send enrolment confirmation).
    2. The enrolment confirmation contains your student ID number, information on any documents that may need to be submitted, the next steps and the start of your studies.
    3. If you are a new student at the University of Münster, you will receive your account letter by e-mail one day after enrolment. This contains your student ID and information on health insurance, payment of the semester fee and your student card. You use your student ID to log in to your university account (SelfService). To do this, you will need the initial password that you wrote down before sending the enrolment application. If you have already studied at the University of Münster in the past, you will receive an account letter with a password by post after approximately one week.
    4. You can only access your semester and BAföG certificates and the semester ticket in SelfService once the semester fee has been received (account balance has been cleared), enrolment has been approved ("freigegeben") in your SelfService and no blocking notes are active (e.g. due to documents to be submitted).
  • Frequently asked questions about enrolment

    • I have not received an enrolment and/or account enrolment email, what do I do now?
    • Please check your spam folder, the capacity of your mailbox and whether you have accidentally deleted the e-mail. If you have not received an e-mail, please contact the Student Admissions Office immediately.
    • I have not written down the initial password, who do I contact?
    • By when do I have to pay the semester fee?
      • You must transfer the semester fee on time (approx. two weeks after enrolment). If the payment is not received on time, your enrolment will be cancelled and you will not be able to study at Münster University in the semester you want.
    • Why do I have a blocking note in SelfService?
      • Please check the reason in SelfService (missing proof of health insurance, random sample, missing documents, etc.) and contact the Student Admissions Office if you have any questions.
    • I would like to withdraw my enrolment at the University of Münster, how do I proceed?
      • Please log in to SelfService and go to Applications > Studies > Cancellation. If you cancel your enrolment, you will be immediately de-registered from the University of Münster and will not be able to start the degree programme you have applied for.
