5. ADVANCED STANDING
www.zitronenwolf.com/DG/master_onlineform.php
Students who have completed a 4 years (or more) bachelors degree or students who already hold a masters
degree in a qualifying field may apply for advanced standing. However, all applicants (including the
aforementioned) have the choice to take the programme in full (2 years).

If you wish to be considered for placement in the third semester of the programme - conditional on a review by
the involved institutes - you will need to provide proof of both, course and credit equivalence. These credits
must be from courses that are part of your previous education, and that are equivalent to modules offered as
part of the first year curriculum of the ITECH programme.
Please note: All applicants will initially be offered acceptance to the first semester; upon enrollment to the
programme, the advanced standing application will take place. Please note, that advanced standing applicants
might receive advanced standing on some or none of the course credits based on the committee's
assessment. Equivalent credits must be analogous to the course of study of the first year of the ITECH
programme curriculum and must also demonstrate high level of academic performance and design proficiency.
Are you intending to complete the programm in two years?*

Are you intending to apply for Advanced Standing upon admission?*

Would you still pursue the programme - full two years - if you are unable to obtain Advanced Standing?*
