Follow-up and random selection procedure
Here you will find information on free places in subjects with restricted admission (first semester only).
Local random selection procedure
A random selection procedure for the Master's programme in Economics will take place until 31 March 2026.
Important: Participation in the random selection procedure is only possible with a study aptitude test!
To participate in the random selection procedure, applications must be submitted via the HHU Düsseldorf application portal. Applications received by e-mail cannot be considered.
Applicants who have applied for a study programme at HHU this year and already have an account (not university ID) for the application portal, please proceed as follows:
Log in to the application portal and submit another application for the desired subject via Add application on the application page.
Applicants who have not yet applied for a study programme via the HHU portal must first complete the self-registration process on the homepage of the application portal. Applicants who are already registered at hochschulstart.de should preferably use their BID and BAN to transfer their master data.
Once you have been randomly selected, you can apply for enrolment - just as you would with a regular application.
In order to ensure a smooth procedure, please refrain from making inquiries by telephone (also due to the large number of applications)!
