BEFORE YOU APPLY
What you need to bring.
- Teaching language
- English-taught academic route. Select an English-taught minor and the English Leuphana/complementary modules to complete the entire degree in English. The profile lists no minimum German certificate at entry.
- English certificates & exemptions
- University instructions list IELTS Academic 7.0, TOEFL iBT 95/5.0 (different scales), PTE Academic 76 and specified alternatives. Eligible English-medium education can qualify; certificate age and native-language exemptions are defined in the source.
- Academic requirements
- Relevant first degree with 60 ECTS in accepted environmental/ecological/sustainability fields, including at least 30 directly related to sustainability. A provisional application needs 81% of degree credits completed (not 81% marks). English evidence is required; selection applies if eligible applicants exceed places.
- Admission planning group
- Additional selection requirements
- Why this group?
- The source specifies a grade/content threshold, admission restriction, assessment, portfolio or experience condition beyond a basic relevant qualification and language evidence. Read the conditions above.
Planning groups describe the published entry and selection requirements. They are not acceptance rates, university rankings, or a prediction of admission. Open admission still requires a recognised qualification and all stated conditions.
