The pre-evaluation of all applications with a preference for Major Cancer Biology has been completed and on 22. April 2015 the top candidates were invited for personal interviews at DKFZ Heidelberg on 30. April (auxiliary date for interviews: 7. May). Overseas or otherwise not available candidates will be interviewed by telephone/Skype between 28. April and 6. May.

Note to all applicants with a preference for Major Cancer Biology:
If you did not receive an invitation e-mail from us on 22. April this means that your application is unfortunately no longer considered for Major Cancer Biology. We are very sorry about this but please understand that we have only 24 places to fill, so a lot of very fine candidates could not be invited.
But maybe the Major of your alternative preference will invite you!? Please follow the process on the University's admission page.

Note to all applicants with a preference for Major Cancer Biology: [Überschrift 5. Ordnung]

If you did not receive an invitation e-mail from us on 27. April this means that unfortunately your pre-evaluation ranking was not high enough to place you on the short-list and that your application is no longer considered for Major Cancer Biology. We are very sorry about this but please understand that again competition was extremely strong, decisions were really hard to take and the results are very tight, but there is a point were we have to make a cut-off as, in the end, we have only 24 places to fill so regrettably a lot of very fine candidates could not be invited.

But maybe the Major of your alternative preference will invite you!? Please follow the process on the University's admission page.

After the last interviews on 8. May the Selection Committee has set up the final ranking list and admission will be given to the successful top-24 candidates through the University of Heidelberg. Places must be accepted by 31. July.

We would like to thank all candidates who have given an interview to our Selection Committee during the past weeks, by telephone/Skype, or personally here in Heidelberg. This year again, competition was extremely strong, decisions were really hard to take and the results are very tight, but unfortunately we have only 24 places to fill so many very fine candidates could unfortunately not be considered.

We wish all candidates who could not be considered all the best for their future plans hoping they will be able to pursue their academic careers in equally interesting programs!
