   What you can study

   The available information identifies Universität Passau as a public research university, but no subject areas or degree programmes are listed. Check the university’s official website for the current programme catalogue and the language and entry requirements for each course.

   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions channels and check the programme-specific requirements on the official website. Confirm the required documents, deadlines, language requirements, and whether your chosen course has additional selection steps.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a fee range for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. As in most places, living costs in Germany will still depend on housing, food, transport, and your personal spending.

   Coming from abroad

   The university’s language of instruction is not stated, so you need to confirm it on the official website before applying. Also check visa needs, recognised entry qualifications, and whether your chosen programme has any language test requirement or course-specific conditions.

   How it compares

   Germany has 326 universities, so Universität Passau sits in a crowded national system where applicants can compare many options. Its clear distinguishing point is that it is public and research-oriented, with a university profile in Passau rather than a large metropolitan setting.
