Each additional desired course of study in the same application semester costs 30.00 EUR. 

Certificates written in languages other than German or English need to be translated by certified translators in Germany. Only officially appointed and sworn translators may translate these documents, and you must submit the originals. German translations made abroad must be certified by the German Embassy or a German Consulate.
You can receive official certifications with official seals from notaries or EU authorities. The university only accepts certifications from the German Embassy or a German Consulate from applicants from non-EU countries.
