Uni-assist evaluates your documents according to our criteria. As soon as your application had been forwarded to us, we will check it once more in detail. This might also take some time, especially with master programmes.

During that time, you may already start your visa application at the German embassy or consulate with the positive evaluation result from uni-assist.
