Applicants are admitted on the basis of the formal criteria set out in §4 of the Examination Regulations (completed university study, sufficient knowledge of the English language and qualified practical experience) as well as an individual selection interview. The approval may be subject to conditions. The Admissions Committee decides on the existence of any equivalent financial statements and on exceptions and conditions.
