This tool is guidance only, based on the APS India dMAT affected-fields list. The list determines only whether the dMAT requirement may apply to your previous field of study — it does not confirm formal recognition of a degree, institution or qualification for higher-education access in Germany. APS India decides the final classification based on the official degree title, major, honours subject, branch or specialisation, transcripts, marksheets, degree duration, institution status and applicable recognition rules. The official wording on your degree certificate and transcripts is decisive.
