Uni for All

How does the "Uni for All" work?

Are you interested in scientific topics, but a regular course of study is out of the question for you? Then take advantage of the "Uni for All" and become a guest student! Numerous courses at Osnabrück University (list at the bottom of the page) are open to people who are not enrolled and/or do not have a university entrance qualification. You can attend courses for up to eight "semester hours per week". One semester hour per week corresponds to 45 minutes of instruction per week.

Please note: Guest students are not entitled to take examinations at Osnabrück University in accordance with Section 10 (4) of the Matriculation Regulations.

How do I get admitted?

In order to participate, you only need to select the desired courses, submit an  application for admission (PDF, 340 kB) and pay a fee. You do not need to submit a university entrance qualification, certificates or other documents. If you are unable to use the online application, you can obtain a paper copy from the Admissions Office and the Central Study Counseling Service Osnabrück.

Important: You must submit a new application for admission for each semester by April 15 (summer semester) or October 15 (winter semester).

If you would like to take up to four semester hours per week (= 4 x 45 minutes per week), a fee of 75 euros per semester applies. If you wish to take more than four semester hours per week, a fee of 100 euros per semester will be charged.

Which courses can I attend?

You can find a list of seminars and lectures that you can attend under "  Uni for All" events.

Tip: In principle, it is also possible to attend seminars or lectures that are not explicitly intended for "Uni for All". You can find the complete range of courses offered by the university in the  course catalog. However, you must obtain the consent of the respective lecturers yourself and document this on the application form!
