I’ve been wanting to go back to school for a while now but after visiting the EU for about 2 months I’ve decided to pursue graduate school (masters) in Europe in Computer/Data science or something related and want to apply for the upcoming winter term next year.
I graduated with a BA in math from a top 10 American school, but my GPA is low, (3.00). The admission process is giving me anxiety mostly because I’m unsure how it all works. I read that for German/Austrian schools admissions is based off prereq fulfillment rather GPA. I’m wondering if anybody could give me insight on that and if there’s any other countries that are similar. I fulfill the requirements for my interested programs and they are “free/non-impacted” admissions and wondering if it really is simple as that.
I’ve narrowed down countries I’m interested to, mainly ones I’ve spent time in:
Germany (TU Berlin, University of Berlin)
Austria (TU Vienna, University of Vienna)
The Netherlands
Switzerland
France
Belgium
if anyone can give me insight pleasee I feel a bit overwhelmed
hey there! grad school in europe is a great idea, especially in compsci/data science. gpa isn’t everything in europe, they care more about prereq fulfillment. if you’re thinking long term stay, consider countries with more english job opportunities. good luck!
