• Academic Performance: Applicants must have a good academic record, with high grades in their respective courses and a GPA of more than 85 points out of 100.
• Language proficiency: Since the University of Marburg is located in Germany, proficiency in English and/or German is required. Candidates need a certificate with a language proficiency of B2 and above.
• Relevance of the study program: The study program offered by the candidate must be in line with the proposals of the University of Marburg and also meet the academic and research interests of the candidate.

The selection process includes the review of the candidates' application materials by the selection committee. The committee evaluates each candidate based on established criteria and conducts interviews until May 15, 2025. The nomination from KNEU does not guarantee a place in the Philipps-Universität Marburg - the final decision remains with Erasmus Team Marburg.

Reference:

• Self-financing means that you do not need to pay for studying at a partner university, but you pay for travel, visa, insurance policy, accommodation in a dormitory or apartment, meals and other expenses.
• If you study on the budget at KNEU, you stay on the budget; if you are on a contract, then you pay the contract at KNEU and go to study according to the chosen program.
