Admission by lot
Get lucky and study
Prospective students on campus
In some study programmes and areas of study with a numerus clausus, there may still be free places available after the regular allocation procedures (often also called clearing procedures, e.g. in the dialogue-orientated service procedure or “DOSV”). The applicants left can then receive one of the free places by lot. In order to take part in the draw, the applicants must register for it. Please note that the registration portals are only active during the respective registration period.
Before registering for the draw, please check whether you have a university entrance qualification for the desired subject(s) of study.
Attention
Please note that you are only allowed to participate in the draw procedure once per subject. Multiple applications for the same subject do not increase your chances—you would be excluded from the draw procedure.
How does the draw procedure work?
Registering for a draw for the first subject-specific semester is only possible online. In the list below, you may find the corresponding registration platforms.
Registering for a draw for higher subject-specific semesters for all study programmes with restricted admission is also possible via the Student Service Centre. Please send a postcard to the Centre. Do not forget to name the study programme and the semester for which you are applying.
Only successful applicants will receive a letter of admission. Notices of rejection will not be issued/sent.
