Admissions and eligibility
Eligibility for Indian qualificationsConditions need checking · 2026/27

An applicant resident in India follows the non-EU-resident-abroad and foreign-qualification route. Eligibility remains conditional on a suitable first-cycle qualification, the call's curricular/language requirements, selection outcome and the intake reserved or open to that category. This is a category mapping, not a finding that every Indian three-year or four-year degree is accepted. The named call and the University's foreign-qualification checks control.
Applicant categoryConditions need checking · 2026/27

Intake-specific categories are printed in applicationRounds; non-EU applicants resident abroad must use only a round expressly open to that category. The call separates non-EU residents abroad from EU citizens and non-EU citizens with equivalent status in one or more intakes. Category wording in the calendar governs.
