During the account registration procedure, opens an external URL in a new window, you will register at the JKU for the first time and as an applicant to the university, you will receive a guest account. This account will allow you to continue the registration procedure.

Please note:

• You will only need this account as a prospective applicant to register to enroll in a degree program until you have been successfully admitted to the university.
• The applicant account does not permit you to log into JKU IT services (i.e. KUSSS). You may only log in to JKU IT services once you have been successfully admitted to the university and your degree program.

If you already have an applicant account, proceed directly to Step 2 "How Do I Choose a Degree Program?”

Log in to your applicant account at JKU MyAdmission, opens an external URL in a new window and select the program you wish to enroll in.

During this step, we ask that you submit the following:

• A recent portrait-size photo (JPEG) for your JKU Card (student ID card)

Please note:

• You will be taking part in a statistical survey in accordance with § 18 Sec. 6 of the Education Documentation Act.
• Submit the recent photo as a JPEG file, not in a read-only mode, and as a portrait size. Please select a passport photo in which you are clearly identifiable, preferably with a monochrome background.

Please ensure that all of your documents are in a PDF file format, complete (all pages), and legible.

• Valid passport, ID card or driver's license in combination with your proof of nationality.
• Confirmation of any name change, providing all documents do not contain the same name (i.e. a marriage certificate).

There is currently no personal admission for non-regular studies at the Admissions Office on the JKU campus. Please complete the admissions process online.
 

Exception:
If you have to take supplementary exams, you can enroll in the non-degree program. To do this, you must come in person to the admissions service during the admission period during the personal service hours. Please take your photo ID (e.g. passport) and your letter of admission with you.

When enrolling to pursue an academic degree, you must pay the Austrian Student Union fee and, if applicable, tuition fees. Only then will you be officially enrolled.

Please note: The Austrian Student Union fee and, if applicable, tuition fees, must be paid every semester.

After successfully passing school-leaving examinations or the university enrollment eligibility examination within the admissions period for the corresponding semester, you may enroll as a degree-seeking student in order to actively pursue an academic degree. At the same time, you will be disenrolled as a non-degree seeking student.

For admission as a degree-seeking student to pursue an academic degree, you will need to show your school-leaving certificate (such as an Austrian "Matura" diploma) or show that you have successfully pass the university enrollment eligibility examination.

Yes, but only if the exams were taken BEFORE completing your school-leaving certificates or the university enrollment eligibility examination. 

If you took examinations when you were enrolled as a non-degree seeking student AFTER completing your school-leaving certificates or the university enrollment eligibility examination, these examinations will NOT count toward your degree program.

If you have any questions regarding credit transfer for examinations, please contact the Office of Examinations and Recognition Services at the JKU.
