Bachelor: Prerequisites & How to Apply

Prerequisites

Students with Swiss qualifications (i.e. a Matura) fulfill the prerequisites for all Bachelor programs at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, including the Bachelor program in English Literature and Linguistics (Major or Minor).
Students with non-Swiss qualifications can find further information on the UZH Application and Admission page. (Note: German C1 is always required, irrespective of the choice of Major and Minor.)

How to Apply

The application process is outlined on the UZH Application and Admission page.

The English Department is not involved in the admission process for Bachelor students. Queries should be directed:

for candidates with Swiss qualifications: to the Student Administration Office;
for candidates with non-Swiss qualifications: to the Admissions Office.
