Application deadlines
Overview of application deadlines
Some degree programs at FAU have admission restrictions while others do not. Degree programs with limited spaces have admission restrictions known as an NC. You can check whether the subject that you would like to study has an NC or not in FAU’s degree program catalog.
Applications should generally be submitted via the campus management portal campo.fau.de, but application deadlines may vary for the various degree programs and target groups.
