Dubious Application Agencies
Currently, THI is receiving an increasing amount of information regarding fraudulent activities in connection with student applications to THI. Therefore, it is important for you to know the following:
- THI does not work with agencies. Please apply directly to THI via the Primuss application portal.
- THI never asks for money via agencies for application purposes.
- THI only sends emails from @thi.de.
- THI never asks for money before you receive your admission letter. If you need a VPD from uni-assist, you will have to pay a processing fee to uni-assist. However, uni-assist only checks certain documents and does not grant admission to THI.
- The application process is conducted in the THI Primuss portal. Only there will you be able to access your application progress.
