The study places for these programmes with local admission restriction will be awarded to applicants after having taken the "pre-quotas" (e.g. for applicants for further studies and Non-EU applicants) into consideration. The selection criteria are the "Abitur" mark and the waiting time.
Please note the information concerning special request forms related to the application process:
(The same criteria as for study programmes with nationwide admission restriction apply)

Only in case you have acquired your university entrance qualification (Abitur) before July 15, 2008, a completed vocational training/employment period before the completion of your Abitur may account for additonal waiting time.
Applicants who are still underage at the time of the start of the lecture period can be potentially considered for a special quota.
