“Nein, im Moment gibt es keinen NC-Studiengang an der TH Deggendorf.”

German quote: the English FAQ omits the NC question. No fixed number of places, no ranking and no Eignungsfeststellungssatzung for this programme, so applicants who meet the published requirements are admitted.
Admission

The typo "eligibilty" is DIT's. No rule specific to India, Nigeria or Pakistan is published.

Exemption: One exemption, without a request: a German university entrance qualification (Abitur, Fachhochschulreife etc., obtained in Germany or at a German school abroad) with English as a graduating subject, and it covers B2 only, not C1. The exemption for proof of a completed degree programme conducted in English was withdrawn in November 2026; the application page now states that a Medium of Instruction certificate cannot be accepted.

“No, a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate cannot be accepted as proof of English language proficiency. An official English language certificate, such as IELTS or TOEFL, is mandatory for your application.”
www.th-deg.de/en/apply · checked 14 November 2026
Until November 2026 the prospective-students FAQ also exempted applicants who could show "Proof of completed degree programme conducted in English". That line has gone from the FAQ, the three campus language-requirement PDFs (version 04.11.2026) list only the German-qualification route in their English column, and the application page now answers the question whether Medium of Instruction certificates are accepted with no. The one exemption DIT still prints needs a German university entrance qualification with English as a graduating subject and covers B2 only, so it is not open to applicants from India, Nigeria or Pakistan.
- Rules that name these countries
- India: Indian applicants must submit a certificate from the Academic Evaluation Service (APS) of the German Embassy in New Delhi with their application.

“For applicants from the People's Republic of China, India and Vietnam, special admission requirements apply for studying at the Deggendorf Institute of Technology. Accordingly, a certificate of the Academic Evaluation Service (APS) of the German Embassy in Beijing, New Delhi or Hanoi is required.”
www.th-deg.de/en/apply · checked 14 November 2026
The page points Indian applicants to https://aps-india.de. The certificate is due by the end of the application deadline: the prospective-students FAQ says "Your APS certficate and language certificate should be delivered by the end of application deadline." DIT no longer publishes the exception it used to state for applicants who are already in Europe, so none is recorded.
- India: Indian applicants must submit a certificate from the Academic Evaluation Service (APS) of the German Embassy in New Delhi with their application.
The rules for your country across all universities, and the visa rules on English tests, are on the India, Pakistan and Nigeria pages.
