Bachelor's Degree Programs (two subjects) - admission restricted
When applying, please ensure that you choose the appropriate Bachelor's degree program (two subjects) for your intended (professional) goal:
- Bachelor of Vocational Education = Vocational Teacher Education
- Bachelor of Education and Teaching = Primary and Secondary Teacher Education (Grund-, Haupt- und Realschule)
- Dual-subject Bachelor = Secondary Teacher Education (Gymnasium) or subject-specific orientation
Some sub-courses/subjects of these Bachelor's degree programs (two subjects) are subject to admission restrictions at Osnabrück University, as demand exceeds the number of study spots available and not all applicants can be offered a spot due to lack of capacity.
Under Admission restrictions you can read which degree programs/subjects are subject to admission restrictions.
For orientation, it is worth taking a look at the selection restrictions of recent years. These selection restrictions result from the existing admission restrictions and reflect the rankings up to which applicants could be offered a study spot.
The admission restriction also applies to higher semesters.
The application periods are basically the same - however, the application modalities and selection criteria differ, which are shown below for each semester.
Important!
Your application for admission is considered to be restricted as soon as only one of your desired partial degree programs/subjects is restricted. If the second sub-degree program/subject is admission-free, the application period mentioned below applies to both!
Please note the language skills required for English Studies/English, Latin, Romance Studies/French, Economics and Business Administration and Economics as well as information on the aptitude test to be taken in Art and Music.
Application period
| 1st semester | 2nd, 4th or 6th semester | 3rd or 5th semester | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Start of studies in winter semester | May 11 - July 15 | not possible | May 11 - July 15 |

Underage applicants
Applicants who are not yet an adult must submit a declaration of consent (PDF, 16.07 kB) with their application.
If you have submitted your application within the above-mentioned application period in the HISinOne-Studienorganisation: Bewerbung, Studium, Prüfung portal of Osnabrück University and uploaded the application documents there, the staff in the Admissions Office of the University will check your application/documents for completeness, among other things.
Only if the overall result of the check is positive will the formal admission procedure follow.
As soon as you have been admitted for the study spot at Osnabrück University, this will be displayed in the HISinOne-Student Administration portal of Osnabrück University as a status change ("Admission offer available"). We therefore recommend that you always keep an eye on the status of your application there. If you have given your consent, you will receive the formal letter of admission electronically via HISinOne-Student Administration. It also contains information and notes on this. We strongly recommend that you not only keep an eye on the status of your application in the HISinOne-Student Administration portal and your inbox there, but also keep an eye on your email inbox. To be on the safe side, always check your spam folder.
If your application has reached the status "admission offer available" and you wish to accept the study spot, this is also done exclusively electronically via the portal HISinOne-Student Administration: Applications, Studies, Examinations. You no longer need to submit any documents by mail, but must upload them in PDF format to the portal within the acceptance and enrollment deadline set in the letter of admission. Osnabrück University reserves the right to randomly check uploaded documents and to request the original document or a verified document.
Do not forget to actually accept the study spot offered to you via HISinOne Study Organization!
If you have only been admitted for one subject, you have the option of using this partial admission via the "Use partial admission for a new application" button to select a new application with a new admission-free subject as an alternative to the rejected subject.
Once you have accepted the study spot, completed the enrollment application and uploaded the required documents, the information and documents you have provided will be checked for completeness. You will not be enrolled until this check is also positive overall and you will be notified of this as a change of status ("Enrolled").
You will then receive a welcome letter via HISinOne-Student Administration with further information and instructions for your studies, including how to set up your access to myuos.uni-osnabrueck.de, how to re-register for the next semester and how to use your email address and Campuscard. Please make sure that you complete setting up your access within 14 days of receiving the welcome letter.
You can find all information on enrollment in the enrollment regulations.
You can also find out about the costs of studying.
Higher semester
Study spots in a higher semester can only be allocated within the scope of available capacity. The decisive factor here is whether the spots to be made available in accordance with the current admission number regulations are (still) occupied in the respective higher semester.
Please note that in the case of a valid application, you can only be enrolled in the requested higher semester if the office responsible for you issues a corresponding placement recommendation and you submit this to the Admissions Office. You will receive information on where to obtain the placement recommendation in your letter of admission - the placement recommendation is therefore not yet required for the application.
In order to receive a placement recommendation, it is necessary to have already completed relevant coursework in the desired subject.
Here you will find further information on the allocation procedure for a higher semester and the placement recommendation as well as the relevant forms.
Urgent recommendation!
Before transferring to Osnabrück University, please contact the respective academic advisors/deans of studies to clarify which achievements can be credited and whether the practical entry into the higher semester is possible without any problems or loss of time.
Please note:
If you wish to change your teaching degree, in particular from a Dual-Subject Bachelor to a Bachelor of Education and Teaching, please note that you can only be admitted to the higher semester in subjects with restricted admission if there are free study spots available.
