Bachelor of Arts ZFH in Communication

You will be admitted to the Bachelor Communication program if you meet the following requirements:

• Maturity certificate (gymnasiale Maturität, Fachmaturität, Berufsmaturität or a foreign equivalent)
• Passing the entrance examination professional suitability

Proof of professional experience (practical year) is not a condition for admission to the Bachelor of Communication.

Applicants who have completed their education in Switzerland must obtain the Matura in the educational path they have followed in the course of their previous education. Exceptions to this principle apply to the following higher vocational education degrees:

• Individuals with a federally recognized diploma from a higher vocational school HF fulfill the scholastic requirements and are admitted to the entrance examination of professional aptitude at the IAM.
• Persons with a Swiss Federal Diploma HFP or a Swiss Federal Diploma of Higher Professional Education BP do not fulfill the scholastic requirements and must take an additional entrance examination before being admitted to the admission procedure at the IAM.

If you have acquired a foreign study qualification abroad or in Switzerland (e.g. Abitur or International Baccalaureate), submit the documents requested by the study program secretariat for the equivalence check. The examination of equivalency is based on the guidelines for the admission examination to the Bachelor's program and takes place after registration.

The registration fees for applicants from abroad are the same as for Swiss applicants. The tuition fees may be higher, if necessary. There is no place restriction for foreign students. More information for prospective students from abroad can be found in the information sheet Applicants from abroad.
