How I Got Admitted to WU - Vienna University of Economics and Business 

Hey Mario! Thanks a lot for watching as well as for the video suggestion! It's a great idea, i will make a video about living in Vienna as a student soon, I didn't want to rush it since I wanted to experience life as a student here for a while so that I'm able to speak from personal experience. And thanks for the good wishes! Have a great day👊🏻

@@jacobshustle403 Appreciate bro, for real. Take it easy

u are doing realy well with 1000 euros a month, but u can also do it with between 600 and 700 euros

Thanks Rohit! Will do!

Leon Horvath which programs that are taught in english ?( i heard it's only for economics and business programs)

Abdel Wadoud El Kahali yes that is the one I think

I was looking for ur comment

Well, 3 of my friends (all admitted to WU at different years but within the last 5 years) told me that they needed to do the entrance exam. I wouldn´t count on there not being an exam as the C1 requirement is a year old now and everyone knows that an increase in requirements took place so people will be better prepared. Either way, good luck if you are trying to get admitted!

Hey! No you don´t need the C1 German certificate, you need a B2 English certificate (which is a lot easier to get).

Hey Samuel! I feel like this question deserves a longer answer in the form of a new video. Coming soon :)

Nope, the only 2 things you need are your C1 Certificate (which you don't need to translate as it's already in German), and the high school diploma which you will need to get translated by an authorised and certified translator. I would recommend bringing copies of both documents when you come to the admissions office though.

Technically it does, although the English taught bachelors programme only has 120 places per year and is fairly new and experimental which is why I didn't mention it. And yes, the WU offers some masters programmes, but I spoke only about bachelors programmes in this video. :)

Jacob's Hustle Yeah, that’s right :)

is that free tuition ?

@@ivanoov3285 yes it is

@@jacobshustle403 make video for masters ( English programs )

Not sure, it will be competitive though, expect an entrance exam in July!

Hey) did u manage to get to English Bacherol program?

Yes. The English taught programs are much harder to get into and the entrance exam is guaranteed!

I am not sure you can work as a third country university preparation student.

Yes, everyone with the C1 certificate and a high school diploma was accepted. I am not sure how many people in total, but I´ve heard from many sources that the limit is ca. 3500 people. I learned English through the making of RU-vid videos on my old gaming channel. Pozdrav! :)

@@jacobshustle403 Thank you. I am looking forward to your new video. Especially if it is about university.

Yes, Sarah! In that case you will need to pay the 50€ fee for both admission procedures separately. In case there is an entrance exam for both programmes they won´t take place at the same time, don´t worry.

Nope, no guarantee, the fact that someone is an exchange student makes no difference. The entrance exam is all that matters :)

Ugh, I really don´t know the answer to that question... But you can do it! Good luck!!

Hey Edward, you were told right. There is an english taught Bachelors program but this year only 120 people were admitted. Not sure about ghe quota for next year. One thing you should know is that the english programe (due to being new and after all taught in english) has tough competition on the entrance exam. Hope this helps. Jacob

Jacob: Thank you. That is very helpful. May I ask another question? In your video, you said in your program, everyone was admitted because not enough people applied? so you did not have to worry about the entrance exam? is that correct? Why did so few people apply? Can you explain a little? Thank you. I should say I am researching school options for my daughter. My wife is Slovak and we live between the US and Slovakia. Right now my daughter is in third year of high school. She is living in Slovakia but studying with an on-line high school from the US. She has US and EU passports. I am researching European schools with programs conducted in English. She is fluent in Slovak but prefers doing her school in English. She also prefers the American style of teaching/learning. She is interested in Webster University in Vienna but I am looking for alternatives that might be just as good but less expensive I would be interested in your comments since you have direct experience. If you have a lot to say and writing is limited, we can arrange to connect via phones, skype, facebook etc Regards, Edward@@jacobshustle403

@@edwardmegargee5506 Hey Edward! I believe there were 2 reasons behind the lower number of applications this year. One is that a fee of €50 was introduced to discourage people from applying without actually intending to study there. The second reason is that the language requirement level was raised from B2 to C1 completely out of the blue which threw a lot of people off guard as they didn´t get their certificate in time. Next year it might be different tho. As for the method of teaching, I will do a video on this as well. Basically, WU gives you complete freedom as to when where and how you study as students are not required to attend most classes so that is something to be considered. Of course, you need to be your own chief and make your own learning schedule or you could quickly fall behind on your studies. That´s about it. If you have any questions or would like to connect via Skype and ask me some more, contact me on Twitter or Instagram. Have a good day :)

Thank you Jacob. This has been a very big help! Good lick with your studies.@@jacobshustle403

Malo je teze vama jer morate i vizu nabaviti. Uz to vama studij nije besplatan nego kosta nekih €750 po semestru.

Thank you Flo!

Da, znaci treba potvrda o zavrsetku srednje (prevedena na Njemacki) i C1 Certifikat. Ocjene nisu bitne. Uz to ces mozda trebati pisati prijemni ispit, to ce ti vec javiti mailom u nekom trenutku. Ako ce biti ispita on ce se odrzati pocetkom srpnja. Hvala ti! Ako imas jos kakvih pitanja javi se slobodno na Instagram. Sretno!

Jacob's Hustle hvala😊

Well, most of the people i know are from the EU, but you can check for yourself on the official WU website over at wu.ac.at

Hey there. I attended WU as an international student and I'm thinking about making a video about how I got accepted. Do you think I should still make it?

I am not sure. You should check out the WU website and possibly ask the office to be sure. Here is the link: wu.ac.at

@@jacobshustle403 thank you and good luck

Thanks! I hope i will 🤘🏻😋

Thank you for your question Alexandra. The WU has a kind of a messed up ECTS system. I will explain this in a separate Video soon. Thanks for your question!

@@jacobshustle403 thank you, could be great!

yes I’m half Egyptian and I’ve lived my entire life in Egypt and I recently just moved here but all I can say it’s really worth it

Yes, there is! A video on this topic coming very soon!

Definitely*

The grades are not important for admission. However if you were a bad student you will naturally have a harder time when it comes to studying and passing exams.

Grades r irrelevant in study admissions in Austria

I'm also interested in the subjects that I will be examined from.

The entrance exam takes place in Vienna sometime mid-July. The examination consists of testing your English and German knowledge, together with some Math and some business literacy.

@@jacobshustle403 only mid-july?

@@alexandrosd7959 Yup. Last year it was planned for the 10th or 11th of July but as I said in the video, the exam ended up not taking place.

@@jacobshustle403 thank you very much for the information, well this year I'll be finishing my high school exams and probably coming there to take those exams

I studied German in high school for 4 years but i learned the most in my last 2 years of learning. Overall I believe that 4 years of semi-casual systematic learning are enaugh to reach the C1 level. It really depends on your personal language-learning abilities.

@@jacobshustle403 Thank you very much for your explaining. I do speak 3 Languages fluently but German language has hit me so hard. I' m here in Austria since late 2015 but still i'm having difficulties for the german language

german,he literally talked whole fucking video about it,are u fucking dumb

@@nnnpz0 which kind of german language certification🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️just for u (dsd osd etc..?)

Hey! No problem, message me on Insta (@JacobsHustle) :P
