Access-restricted (zugangsbeschrankt) written-application programmes, the largest category, use this window and it applies equally to German and international applicants. Admission-restricted online-portal programmes instead use 1 April to 15 May, and a few subjects (for example Physics, Molecular Biosciences) have their own separate dates.
