Admitted – Next Steps

Congratulations on your admission to the MIPLC LL.M. program! Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you secure your place and prepare for your journey to Munich.

Admitted applicants will receive a letter of admission by email, and upon request, by post. Please note that admission is only valid for the academic year for which the application was made.

As we admit more applicants than we can accommodate, securing your spot requires the following steps:

  • Complete, sign, and return the Agreement with the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition.

  • Transfer a non-refundable guarantee payment of EUR 3,000 to the MPI's bank account within four weeks of admission. This payment will be applied against the first installment of the participation fee.

If you require financial assistance and cannot make the guarantee payment within the specified period, you may defer accepting admission until the fee waiver scholarships are allocated. In this case:

  • Your admission remains valid, but your status will change to "participation pending."
  • After the deadline for the guarantee payment, your spot might be given to another student if you have not secured it.

For information on financial assistance, please visit our Tuition & Financial Aid page. 

Waiver applicants can choose to make the guarantee payment to secure their spot. Remember, this payment is non-refundable.

 

Important: Making the guarantee payment does not affect your chances of receiving a scholarship. If you drop out later due to lack of funding, the guarantee payment will be forfeited.
