Can I apply for a second study programme if I already graduated from the College?
No, you are not allowed to apply again once you are a College alumnus. The large number of applicants requires a strict limitation of admitted students.
Where should I send my transcript if I only obtain it after the application deadline?
The transcripts for all semesters of your studies should be included in your online application. If a transcript is not yet available before the application deadline, please send it to the Admissions Office (info.admissions@coleurope.eu) as soon as possible and preferably before the start of the interviews.
Do I have the possibility to add additional letters of recommendation?
If you have sent the 2 obligatory recommendation questionnaires to your referees through the online application system, you are allowed to add (max.) 2 optional letters of recommendation. These referees do not necessarily have to be professors who taught you at university and can assess your performance. You have to upload the optional letters yourself (application tab of the online application). The extended deadline for the referees is not applicable as far as these optional letters are concerned.
