Study without high school diploma
The content on this page was translated automatically.
We learn not only at school, but also in life, at work and in further vocational training. It is therefore logical to also enable people to study who do not have an Abitur or Fachhochschulreife, but who have sufficient skills to successfully complete a course of study due to qualifications gained outside of a general school.
In Hesse, there are three routes to university for vocationally qualified people without an Abitur:
- University access on the basis of a master craftsman's examination or an equivalent advanced training course
- University access on the basis of completed vocational training with several years of professional experience
- University access with intermediate school leaving certificate and qualified training certificate
Are you unsure whether you can start a degree course with your qualification?
Then please use the online form "Studying with professional qualification" of the Hessian universities and select "Preliminary examination of your documents: University entrance qualification with professional qualification".
