Welcome to the online application for Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz!



Creating a user account

In order to apply, you will need a user account.

Please click on the “Create account” button on the left side menu and follow the instructions on the next page. After you have submitted the form, you will receive an email with your temporary login password. You will be prompted to change this password as soon as you log in. Your username is the email address you used to create the account.

Please note that in times of high workload (at the end of the application deadline, for example) there may be severe delays in generating user accounts. We therefore recommend that you generate your account ahead of time! If the e-mail with your temporary login password is delivered late, this is not a sufficient reason for the extension of the application deadline. If you have any questions in case of delays, please wait until the next day before sending your inquiry.

Information on applicant accounts from previous semesters' application procedures:
We are required to delete applications and accounts from previous application procedures regularly. This happens at different times depending on the procedure.

If you have already applied via this portal in the previous semester, please check if your user account still exists.
If you have forgotten your password, please use the "Forgotten password?" button in the upper left corner.
Alternatively, you can create a new account. If your old account still exists, you will receive a message from the system.

In case of other login problems please contact JOGU-StINe Services directly: bewerbung-jogustine@uni-mainz.de

To log in please click "Log in" at the top right and enter your username and password.
