An overview of selection criteria

?

• Grade point average of the higher education entrance qualification (HZB-Durchschnittsnote)
  The grade point average of the higher education entrance qualification is the grade point average displayed on the qualification certificate. The selection of basic and advanced courses plays no role. A maximum of 25 points can be achieved on the basis of the final Abitur grade in the selection process at the 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】 of Augsburg. The number of points accrued according to the result of the higher education entrance qualification is calculated according to Appendix 1 of the Selection Statutes of the Faculty of 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】icine (Auswahlsatzung 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】izin).
• Standard score of the test for medical degree programmes (TMS-Standardwert)
  The test for medical degree programmes is specifically designed to predict the aptitude of prospective medical students. A ranking is created by the Faculty of 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】icine at the 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】 of Augsburg on the basis of the standard score of the test for medical degree programmes. The TMS is taken into full consideration for the internal quota; a maximum of 70 points can be calculated based on the TMS score for the remaining quota of the university selection process (AdH). If the application does not include a TMS score or it falls under the average (under 100 points), no points will be allocated. The calculation of points for the TMS occurs according to Appendix 4 Para. 2 of the Bavarian Higher Education Admissions Regulation (Hochschulzulassungsverordnung, HZB) according to a z-transformation for normal distributions. The test dates and registration deadlines can be found on the TMS website.
• Vocational education and training
  Vocational education and training in medicine is recognised with 3 points according to Appendix 6 of the Bavarian Higher Education Admissions Regulation (Hochschulzulassungsverordnung, HZB).
• Recognised practical experience
  Recognised practical experience in medicine is recognised with 2 points according to Appendix 3 of the Selection Statutes of the Faculty of 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】icine (Auswahlsatzung 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】izin)

Applicants with a vocational qualification but without a school-based higher education entrance qualification also have the possibility to apply to study medicine. There are two distinct groups:

• Persons without a school-based higher education entrance qualification but with a master craftsman’s diploma (Meisterbrief) or another equivalent vocational qualification.
• Persons without a school-based higher education entrance qualification but with a vocational qualification and a professional occupation in the same area as the vocational qualification.

Applications for an advisory interview (Beratungsgespr?ch) and, if applicable, participation in a higher education admission examination (only for vocationally qualified without a master craftsman’s diploma) are to be submitted by the 15th of May to the Registrar’s Office at the 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】 of Augsburg. Applicants from both groups will be informed about the content, structure, and demands of a medical degree as well as about how to prepare for it. After the advisory interview, applicants with a master craftsman’s diploma or equivalent qualification will receive an equivalent grade for a general higher education entrance qualification based on the final grade of their vocational qualification.?

?

Vocationally qualified applicants with a minimum of three years professional experience will be invited to take a higher education entrance examination following the advisory interview at the 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】 of Augsburg. Based on the results of the higher education entrance examination, a subject-specific higher education entrance qualification will be awarded. In order to gain admission to the higher education entrance examination, applicants must provide evidence that their vocational qualification and professional experience is medically related. Recognised professions are listed in Appendix 6 of the Bavarian Higher Education Admissions Regulation (Hochschulzulassungsverordnung, HZB). The higher education entrance examination grade serves as a grade equivalent for the subject-specific higher education entrance qualification.?

?

Both groups of applicants apply with their grade equivalent through the central allocation process (see above) for a study place in medicine.

?

Detailed information about the application process and dates for submitting documentation for the advisory interview and the higher education entrance examination can be found on the Registrar’s Office’s website at the 威尼斯赌博游戏_威尼斯赌博app-【官网】 of Augsburg.
