The process for application for applicants who did not acquire their Bachelor's Degree in the Federal Republic of Germany is as follows:
a) Submit documents at uni-assist (https://my.uni-assist.de/).
Uni-assist will check them and return a preliminary inspection
documentation (in German: Vorprüfungsdokumentation, VPD), which contains
information regarding an applicant's entitlement to study in Germany. The VPD
then has to be submitted at Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt.
- !!! Attention: In case your relevant pre-studies were acquired in
China, India or Vietnam you need an APS certificate in order to
apply at uni-assist!!!
Deadlines for applications for the winter term: We recommend submitting
the documents at uni-assist until 1st of June as
the VPD then has to be submitted at the Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt until
15th of July at the latest. Application at uni-assist is possible during the
whole year, you don't have to wait for the application period to start.

Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt (https://www3.primuss.de/cgi-bin/bew_anmeldung/index.pl). The application period for the winter term (starting 1st of
October) is from 2nd of May to 15th of July.
There you will have to upload all
the necessary documents including your VPD. You can still upload documents
within the respective periods (there will be deadlines per document in the
upload area) after you sent your application online (there is no need to send
hardcopies for an application).
