Beside an excellent academic record, selection criteria include the applicants' social and intercultural skills; candidates
are also selected on the basis of the principle of equal opportunity. As part of their internationalisation strategies the
single institutions of higher education have the liberty to limit their selection to candidates from determined
disciplines, i.e. for certain exchange programmes.
