Fee notes: €0 tuition for all students, including non-EU/EEA — Berlin is a city-state that charges no tuition. Semester contribution ≈€280/semester, but no hard total is published here: the Deutschlandsemesterticket portion (€208.80, WS 2025/26 onward) is confirmed system-wide, while the Studierendenwerk and student-body components are pending TU Berlin-specific confirmation. The contribution includes the nationwide Deutschlandsemesterticket (all Berlin ABC zones plus regional transport across Germany, delivered digitally in the S-Bahn Berlin app and re-fetched every month) — confirm the current arrangement at tu.berlin. The ticket price is recalculated from 1 July 2026 and may rise for WS 2026/27.

## Admission requirements

- Prior degree: not confirmed
- Minimum grade: not confirmed
- Also required: Possibly open admission (non-NC): one IGG admission page cites a 31 August application deadline, which matches TU Berlin's later open-admission date rather than the 15 May NC date — if confirmed, this is a useful non-NC entry point among the shortlist. Confirm NC status and prior-degree requirements on the programme page. Apply via uni-assist + VPD (required from summer semester 2026); €75/€30 uni-assist fees; one master's application per semester; APS required for Indian applicants.

## Application deadlines

- All applicants, winter semester: 2026-08-31. 31 August per an IGG admission page — consistent with open (non-NC) admission; confirm on the current programme page. Visa caveat: a 31 August deadline for an October start leaves very little time for a non-EU student visa plus the uni-assist VPD — realistically, apply far earlier.

## How to apply

- uni-assist required: yes (the deadline notes show who this applies to)
- Application portal: https://www.uni-assist.de/en/
- Official programme page: not confirmed
