What are the admission letter and enrollment certificate? How can I request both?

What’s the difference between the admissions letter and the enrollment certificate?

The admissions letter is an official document from ToU informing you that you have been accepted into a program. It contains the program title, start date, and, if applicable, any conditions you need to meet to secure your place (e.g., submitting transcripts, proof of English proficiency). Receiving the admissions letter signifies that you are eligible to enroll, but you haven't officially secured your spot yet.

The enrollment certificate (or Studienbescheinigung) in Germany confirms your enrollment status for a specific semester or term. ToU can only issue your enrollment certificate after the start of your program. You will receive an updated enrollment certificate from ToU every six months.

If you need certain information for your employer or an agency that goes beyond the information provided in the admissions letter before the start date of your study program, we can issue a letter with the information that you need upon request. Please be as specific as possible with the information that should be covered in this document.

When can I expect my admission letter and enrollment certificate?

Admission Letter

You will receive your admission letter by email after you successfully completed all admissions requirements and signed your student contract.

Enrollment Certificate (Studienbescheinigung)

You will have access your first enrollment certificate after the program start date during your onboarding week. We then issue a new enrollment certificate every semester until you complete your studies.

You can download your enrollment certificate directly from the learning app starting from the first day of your studies. Follow the steps below to obtain your enrollment certificate:

1. Log into your account in the learning app: https://app.tomorrow.university/
2. In the top right corner of your screen, click on your profile picture.
3. Then, head over to Your Documents.
4. Under the tab Enrollment Certificates, find the program you are generating or obtaining an enrollment certificate for. For most learners, there will only be one program listed here.
5. Open the white box for the program you've selected and identify the semester you would like to generate or obtain an enrollment certificate for.
6. Then, click Generate or Download to get your enrollment certificate for that semester.
   1. If this is your first time obtaining an enrollment certificate for that semester, you will have to generate the document.
   2. If you've generated the certificate before, you'll be able to download it directly.
7. If you are unable to generate a certificate, it's most likely because we need to make sure that all of your data are present in our system. This is very easy to resolve; just contact our team through the support chat and we'll be happy to assist you.
