Global Graduate Awards - Global Freshman Certificate

Global Graduate Awards

Our Global Graduate Awards provide an international postgraduate award at highly affordable prices, and are offered as fully online, or through our hybrid model whereby students are able to transfer to locations in Germany to complete their degree and qualify for 18 months PSWR. We are a pioneer in delivering high-quality education, leveraging technology and innovation to meet the changing needs of students. With our hybrid study model, we allow students the flexibility to begin their studies from anywhere in the world and finish their studies on campus.

Entry Requirements

General Entry

  • Completed undergraduate degree with at least 180 ECTS credits (FTE 3 years or 6 semesters).
  • Your degree must be from a state or state-recognised higher education institution/university.
  • You must have achieved a final grade of at least “satisfactory” or Grade C equivalent in your previous undergraduate degree.

 Additional Entry

  • For some programs (such as MBA), proof of at least one year’s professional work experience completed prior to the start of study programme. Work experience must have been gained after completion of your undergraduate studies.
  • If your undergraduate degree is 240 ECTs ( FTE 4 years or 8 semesters), you may be eligible for a shorter program.

 English Language

  • Fully online study does not require an English proficiency test. However, the course is in English, and it is expected students are at IELTS 6.0 level or equivalent to be able to gain successfully progress.
  • If you are electing to undertake the Hybrid model, depending on your personal circumstances, you might be required to provide proof of your English language proficiency. Your skills would need to match the B2 level of the Common European Framework (CEF). 
  • We accept the following English language skills certificates*: 
  • TOEFL (minimum 80 points)* or 
  • IELTS (minimum Level 6)* or 
  • Duolingo English Test (minimum 95 points)*
  • PTE Academics (minimum 59 points)* or
  • Cambridge Certificate (minimum Grade B)* 
  • If English is your native language, or have you graduated from an English-speaking school or university, then you do not need to prove your English language proficiency as we regard the MOI (Method of Instruction) as meeting the requirement. However, entrance to the course is separate from visa requirements and additional advice is required to check those requirements.

How Does the Hybrid Model Work?

  •  Students are able to transfer to Germany to study on-campus as per the table below.
  • Upon graduation, they qualify for 18 months PSWR
  • When we submit the student application, we answer ‘yes’ to the question ‘Would you like to do a part of your studies on campus?’ and indicating the planned intake on campus.
  • The student submits a request to move to campus via the application management tab of the MyCampus portal, 6 months prior to the intake.
  • After paying the campus fee, the student receives his offer letter, tuition contract and letter of admission to submit his visa application.
  • Depending on the program, students can move to campus following this schedule:
