The Freshman Institute is a central academic organization within the FH Aachen (Aachen University of Applied Sciences). Its aim is to enable international applicants to qualify for a place on a degree program in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW).
Due to the Program's special status, the regulations of the German Central Office for External Education Systems (Zentralstelle für ausländisches Bildungswesen, ZAB) are replaced by the Program's own entrance examinations.
After successfully completing the Freshman Year, students can apply to universities in North Rhine-Westphalia. Resembling in its form and function the first year of a four-year Bachelor degree program common in the Anglo-Saxon education system, the Freshman Year is financed solely from the fees paid by its students.
