Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • Applicants need a recognised bachelor's degree in economics, finance or a closely related quantitative field.
  • Those awaiting graduation must have completed at least 80% of their credits when applying.
  • Selection considers degree results, quantitative preparation, motivation and a reference letter; meeting the basic requirements does not secure one of the limited places.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • Accepted English evidence includes IELTS Academic 7.0, TOEFL iBT 95, UNIcert III or Cambridge C1 Advanced.
  • A bachelor's degree taught solely in English can support exemption when the university provides the required teaching-language certificate.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • Winter entry in October.
  • The standard programme is four semesters, two years, and 120 ECTS at Campus Westend.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • The programme publishes applications from 2 January to 15 May, with 31 January and 31 March early-review stages.
  • The dated announcement describes winter 2026/27, whose final deadline has passed.
  • Confirm the 2027 call and portal dates rather than assuming the previous year's notice is a current open round.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • The MMF programme charges no tuition, including to international students.
  • Goethe's winter 2026/27 standard semester contribution is EUR 408.28, superseding the programme page's older approximate amount.
  • This is a compulsory per-semester contribution, not the full study budget.
  • Professional programmes at Goethe Business School have different fee arrangements.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • The programme points students towards DAAD awards, the Deutschlandstipendium and support for international students facing hardship.
  • Awards have separate academic, nationality, timing and financial criteria.
  • Neither admission nor tuition-free study guarantees a living-cost scholarship.
