I am interested in MA Archaeology, but am I qualified?
For admission in the MA program, you need a:
- Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) with a grade of at least 2.5 (German grading system) or better
- English language proficiency equivalent to CEFR level B2 GER,
- a TOEFL (IBT) test with a minimum score of 100 (IBT) or 630 (PBT) or an equivalent test as
determined by TS/TOEFL with an equivalent score;
- a TOIEC test with a minimum score of 700;
- an IELTS test with minimum overall score of 6,5 and at least 6 per section or area of competence;
- a Cambridge Certificate FCE with completed level B2 or higher
It’s recommended that students hold either a:
- Bachelor in Archaeology (ideally with some additional experience in Natural Sciences)
- Or a Bachelor in a neighbouring discipline like Cultural Studies, Social Anthropology, Geosciences or History (ideally with some additional experience in Archaeology)
If the Bachelor you hold does not match exactly the ones mentioned before, then this may not necessarily be an exclusion criterion, the professors will take the final decision on your application.
Note:
- German language proficiency is not required as the Archaeology program is taught completely in English.
- You do not need to have completed your Bachelor degree, you can also apply if you will graduate before October.
