Required documents

We recommend that you prepare all the required documents before starting your application. The documents needed depend on your chosen study programme and your background. Below you will find a list of the documents most frequently requested. This list is not exhaustive, and your chosen programme may require additional documents. When you apply, the system will indicate which documents you need to upload in order to submit an application for your chosen study programme.

All documents need to be uploaded in PDF, JPG or PNG format. Maximum size per document: 5 MB.

For candidates from a country that is not a member of the European Union: If you receive an admission letter, you will need to provide an extract from your criminal record as part of your immigration procedure. We strongly recommend that you request a criminal record extract from your country of residence in advance, so that it does not hold up the procedure with the Ministry of Home Affairs, General Department of Immigration. We suggest requesting this document no later than the beginning of April, even if you have not yet received the result of your application.

Generally required documents

In some cases we also require:

• A letter of motivation (explaining why you are interested in the field or course you are applying for, setting out your career goals, etc.)
• A detailed curriculum vitae
• Full contact details of two referees
• A letter of recommendation
• Any other documents listed on the chosen programme’s page

Go to our online platform and complete the application form. When creating your account, a 10-character student ID will be assigned to you by email. Please make sure to check your inbox and spam folder. You must create only one student ID per application period.

The student ID is required to log in to the Admission Portal.

If you are registering for the first time, the system will create a temporary account. You will receive an email inviting you to initialize your password via passwordreset.uni.lu.

Special cases:

• If you have applied in previous years but did not complete your registration, you must create a new student ID.
• If you have already been enrolled at the University of Luxembourg and have earned ECTS credits, you must use the same student ID. In case of access issues, please request the reactivation of your account by the SEVE via the ticketing system.

• Go to platform

To finalize your application, upload the required documents via the admissions platform and pay the 100 € administrative fee per application. Payment is made by bank card directly through the platform.

Please note that fee waivers are not possible. The fees are non-refundable but 100€ will be deducted from the first semester’s tuition fees for admitted candidates who finalize their enrolment.

See our privacy notice for student admissions.

Once all required documents have been uploaded and the application fees have been paid, you must submit your application.

Note: Paying the application fees does not automatically submit your application, you must click the “Send your file” button.

Each program has its own application deadline, so please ensure you check the deadline that applies to your applicant profile (EU or non-EU).

Applications submitted after the deadline will not be accepted.

See our privacy notice for student admissions.

You can track the progress of your application directly through the admissions portal. It is important to check it regularly, as additional information specific to your application may be posted there.
