Studying medicine: How to apply?
You can apply to any university in Germany via Hochschulstart. It is not only possible! You should definitely do it, because the application is free and you increase your chances of getting a place at a university. Study place clearly.
In total, there are 36 universities to which you can send your application via Hochschulstart. You can read about the exact application process here: https://hochschulstart.de/informieren-planen/verfahrensdetails
Is it possible to prioritise certain universities?
The prioritisation of universities has been more or less abolished! This means that you no longer have any advantage or disadvantage when applying if a university is prioritised or not. The universities also know nothing about your ranking list.
You can create a ranking list according to which you can sort the universities yourself. This means that if you receive a potential acceptance letter from several universities, you are most likely to be accepted to a university that is higher in the ranking. So choose your favourites!
ImportantPrioritisation does not change your chances of admission! It only changes the probability that you will be admitted to the university of your choice.
Do you automatically take part in all three selection procedures?
Yes, you automatically take part in the three Abitur quota procedures, AdH, ZEQto participate. You do not need to provide any further information about which procedure you want to take part in.

Is it difficult to apply via Hochschulstart?
Admittedly, the application process is quite confusing at first glance. However, once you have familiarised yourself with the structure of Hochschulstart, the application is no longer a major problem.
The big advantage is simply that you don't have to apply to each university individually! All you need to do is collect all the necessary documents once and you can apply everywhere.
Is it worth applying via Hochschulstart even if I have a poor NC?
Definitely! Especially if you're fresh out of school, it's always worth applying because you'll continue to receive child benefit. You are then officially "waiting" for a place at university.
Even so, it certainly doesn't hurt to give it a try. The application is free of charge.
