Nowadays almost anyone can study, especially since the annoying tuition fees have been abolished. Even a rather poor Abitur average cannot spoil your dream of completing your studies, because there are numerous courses without NC, as well as promising alternatives for study places that are difficult to get, which come very close to the actual goal. We have put together what these are for you.
The best courses without NC
- Business Administration: Business administration is probably the most popular course of study, which isn't really surprising - after all, as an economist you can join pretty much any company, become self-employed, become a global player and make big money. While some universities require an NC, there are also many NC-free degree programs. An example of this would be business administration at the TH Brandenburg .
- Law: Law is still a popular field of study; after all, you can make big money as a lawyer, represent exciting cases or have a quiet and extremely financially rewarding career as a notary. Law courses without NC are available at the University of Passau , University of Regensburg and University of Jena , among others.
- Teaching profession: Do you also want long holidays like when you were at school as an adult? Then you best become a teacher! No, of course you should also have valuable educational skills in order to give the young people of tomorrow everything they need to know. If these are given, you can, for example, enroll in NC-free courses at the University of Passau or the University of Augsburg .
- Biology: If you are interested in science, biology may be the right choice for you. You can specialize in various areas, including genetics, zoology or plant biology. You can find admission-free courses at, for example, the LMU Munich orBonn-Rhein-Sieg University .
- Computer science: In times of the digital revolution, it definitely doesn't hurt to be familiar with computers. Computer scientists are in great demand in every industry, can work from anywhere and earn very well. In addition, computer science is an open-admission course that you can take at almost any university - there is a clear list of them.
NC-free, alternative courses of study
Yes, unfortunately there are some disciplines for which you need a first-class certificate - but there are just as many great alternatives. We have listed a few of them for you.
Medical technology instead of medicine
Medicine is probably one of the most demanding courses of study, which makes it difficult to get a place - an A grade is mandatory and then there are also lottery procedures etc. Many people therefore choose to go abroad and go to Austria, for example, where they have to take an entrance test must, or to Hungary. If you want to stay in Germany, you should look for an alternative that does not require registration. There are NC-free courses in medical informatics at the TH Brandenburg , medical economics at the RFH Cologne and medical technology at the HFU Tuttlingen .
Business psychology instead of psychology
Psychology can only be studied with an excellent grade and is no less hotly contested than the medical course. Alternatively, the open-admission course in business psychology is available: at FOM, for example, you can apply for this bachelor's course without NC. The plus point is that the FOM University is explicitly aimed at working people and thus enables part-time studies.
Language and text studies instead of media studies
In times of Facebook and Co., the correct use of media is almost mandatory. Logically, this leads to more and more professional fields - from journalism to PR, moderation, market research, etc. Unfortunately, most media studies courses are not NC-free, which is why an alternative is needed. At the University of Passau, for example, there is language and text science , an admission-free course of study that is heavily influenced by German studies. The great thing about it: Many courses overlap with those of the BA Media and Communication , which is why you can have courses completed in language and text credited after one semester if you change your degree program easily.
Media technology instead of media studies
Let's stay with the media for a moment, because not everyone wants to specialize in literature/German studies. If you are more interested in the technical side, i.e. audio and video technology, software development and media production, you can enroll in the admission-free media technology course at the TU Ilmenau .
As you can see, there are many options for enrolling in topic-related courses even without a nerd's high school diploma. Start your search engine and browse around a bit - you'll be amazed at what you'll find there. In addition, special courses often offer the opportunity to land niche jobs and become a renowned specialist.
