General Requirements of Application DocumentsAll re­quired doc­u­ments have to be up­loaded to the on­line ap­pli­ca­tion por­tals of ei­ther HfK for Me­dia De­sign ap­pli­ca­tions, or UNI for Me­dia In­for­mat­ics ap­pli­ca­tions. This means you may need to scan some pa­per doc­u­ments first. Please en­sure that the scans are read­able but not of ex­ces­sive file size. A res­o­lu­tion of 100–150dpi is suf­fi­cient. All doc­u­ments have to be in PDF for­mat. The to­tal size of all your doc­u­ments for up­load may not ex­ceed 50MB, this in­cludes all doc­u­ments listed be­low, with the ex­cep­tion of your port­fo­lio, which can be up­loaded or sub­mit­ted via a link (see de­tails be­low). Make it easy for the ad­mis­sion com­mit­tee to re­view your doc­u­ments. Struc­ture your port­fo­lio well and as of­ten less is more.If your ap­pli­ca­tion is suc­cess­ful, you will have to hand in orig­i­nal doc­u­ments for en­roll­ment. At­tested copies of cer­tifi­cates will only be ac­cepted if they are is­sued by Ger­man au­thor­i­ties. In ad­di­tion, you need a valid pass­port or a birth cer­tifi­cate for your en­roll­ment. Only doc­u­ments writ­ten in ei­ther Eng­lish or Ger­man lan­guage are ac­cept­ed. You are re­quired to pro­vide cer­ti­fied trans­la­tions for doc­u­ments writ­ten in other lan­guages. Ap­pli­cants from Mon­go­lia, the Peo­ple’s Re­pub­lic of China, and Viet­nam are re­quired to first con­tact the Akademis­che Prüfstelle (APS) of the Ger­man em­bassy in their coun­try in or­der to re­ceive a cer­tifi­cate with­out which they can­not be granted a visa. In your own in­ter­est to pre­vent any loss of valu­able doc­u­ments use only the elec­tronic sub­mis­sion sys­tem. Do not send orig­i­nal pa­per doc­u­ments.Documents required for the application, Letter of Motivation, Curriculum Vitae, Certificate of English Language Proficiency, Certificate of an accepted bachelor’s degree or equivalent (including transcript of records), Portfolio, Letter of MotivationTell us why you want to study in our pro­gram, tells us about your in­ter­ests, back­ground, ex­pec­ta­tions, plans and what you think you can bring to the pro­gram, any­thing that you feel we should know, but keep it brief.

To en­sure the timely ar­rival of your lan­guage cer­tifi­cate, do not ask TOEFL or other test providers to send it to us di­rectly. Rather, up­load a scan of the cer­tifi­cate in the ap­pli­ca­tion por­tals. Later, you will be asked to pre­sent the orig­i­nal or an at­tested copy. The re­quire­ment for this cer­tifi­cate may be waived if the for­mer de­gree qual­i­fy­ing for this mas­ter pro­gram was taught in Eng­lish or if the school ed­u­ca­tion qual­i­fy­ing you for uni­ver­sity en­trance was in Eng­lish. In such a case, please leave a re­mark in the ap­pro­pri­ate com­ment field of the on­line ap­pli­ca­tion por­tal and pro­vide proof that the in­struc­tion in­deed was in Eng­lish if this is not self-ev­i­dent ( e.g ­for stud­ies at reg­u­lar uni­ver­si­ties in e.g Aus­tralia, New Zealand, the U.S.A. or in the UK ).
