Is the total enough on its own?
No. Both conditions apply: at least TDN 3 in every skill and at least 12 in total. A result below TDN 3 cannot be offset by higher results elsewhere.
What about a double degree?
The 12-point rule covers entry to the TGU bachelor’s programme. A German partner university may set a higher language requirement for a double degree.
