Does the program offer financial support?

Yes. Being part of the Cluster of Excellence NeuroCure (www.neurocure.de) the program can offer some financial support: The top Master applicants will be offered a stipend in the amount of €550 per month. All other students will have to finance themselves. See also: Finances.

How can I prepare for the admissions’ test?

The program subject test asks for general background knowledge in biology, chemistry, and physics. Proficiency in just one of these fields is not sufficient for admission. Common textbooks, handbooks for Graduate Record Examinations, or Schaum's outline may serve as preparation. A list of suggested reading is available here.

I do not know what a transcript of records is or my institution does not issue such a document. What can I submit instead?

Your transcript of records details the courses and grades of your undergraduate education. If your university does not issue transcripts, you need to submit another form of record such as a Studienbuch (student kept records of your study) and certificates of major exams you have passed (Vordiplom, Physikum, module grades).
