Anyone who wants to study at TU Wien has to complete the pre-registration. Depending on which degree programme you are interested in, the pre-registration includes either the registration for the entrance exam or the aptitude assessment procedure (Programme-PRe-Phase).

Once you have completed the pre-registration and the selection procedure/aptitude assessment, you will receive in your registration account an admission code. With this admission code and all other documents required for admission you come to the Admission Office in person to complete the enrolment within the admission period and during the opening hours.

In study programmes with entrance exam the number of available study places is limited. The selection of the students takes place before the admission to the bachelor's programme.

NOTE! 
Bachelor's programmes with entrance exams have separate registration deadlines (Architecture, Computer Science, Spatial Planning). The registration period starts in spring and the entrance exam takes place only once a year before the beginning of the winter semester. If the registration deadline is missed, participation in the entrance exam and admission to the bachelor's programme is not possible for the current academic year.

Once you have obtained a study place, you will have to complete the pre-registration by uploading all necessary documents. You are NOT required to personally come into the Admission Office! The admission will be done entirely online. Once your application is approved, you will receive an e-mail with all necessary information. Afterwards you will have to pay the prescribed ÖH-/tuition fee to finalise the enrolment. Your student ID card (TUcard) will be sent to you via post to the address provided within the framework of your pre-registration.

This study preparation and reflection phase should provide a basis for entry into the chosen bachelor's programme. The structure and content of the Programme-PRe-Phase are determined by the representatives of the respective bachelor's programme and must be completed prior to admission.

The pre-registration is open from the beginning of the general admission period. Upon completion of the Programme-PRe-Phase, you will receive an admission code in your registration account, which you have to bring along with all other required documents for admission in person to the Admission Office.
