In this article, we have selected a few universities in Europe that accept undergraduate students with low grades and provide them with equal opportunities. Such universities are usually located in the Baltic and Scandinavian regions of Europe and so, they come with a benefit of low tuition fees and low living costs while providing elite education to its students.
You might be wondering how exactly low is “low GPA”. Well, the answer varies. In some universities, 60%-70% is considered to be average/low while in some universities 40%-50% is considered to be low. This depends on how much the university usually awards as the highest mark. Either way, when you apply to universities in Europe, your grades are converted into European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) credits. Your application will be accepted only when your grades can be translated into sufficient credits.
Here are a few universities which accept graduates with a low GPA (Note- Order does not denote ranking).
GPA REQUIREMENTS – The applicant must possess at least approximately 75 percent of the maximum obtainable grade. This may vary depending on the grading system of the university awarding the Bachelor's degree.
DTU is one of Denmark’s top technical universities. It offers research-based programs that help students gain theoretical and practical knowledge to solve complex engineering problems. The university covers core and interdisciplinary disciplines such as mechanics, numerical simulation, fluid flows, energy conversions, etc. The university covers areas such as energy, materials, production, etc. Some of the research labs at the university include:
GPA REQUIREMENTS – A minimum of 65% overall.
Courses available – Master of Engineering Sciences in:
VGTU is ranked by QS World University ranking as the 39th university in Emerging Europe and Central Asia region (2019). It is one of the biggest research universities in Lithuania with a focus on engineering and technology. VGTU is regarded to be a leading research institute. 19% of the VGTU researchers have an h-index of 10 or higher (h-index is a metric that is based on the set of scientist’s most cited papers and the number of citations that they have received in other publications) (1)
Some of the laboratories at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University that work on projects related to Mechanical University include:

GPA REQUIREMENTS – No minimum grades are required but there is an online entrance test.
The courses offered by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering by the Technical University of Liberec are:
The Technical University of Liberec excels at both academic and scientific research. All study programs are accredited by the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports of the Czech Republic. The country of Czech Republic is known for its textile, material, chemical, mining, and automobile industries and the TUL focusses strongly on these departments in addition to be a forerunner in the production of nanofibers and nanotechnology. Research takes up 25% of the activity happening at TUL. The university houses several laboratories under each department. Here are some labs that the university uses to carry out research related to mechanical engineering:
Apart from this, you can visit the individual departments to know about the laboratories in each department:
Apart from the above-mentioned universities, there are some universities that do not offer a direct postgraduate degree in mechanical engineering but rather a specialised or interdisciplinary degree related to mechanical engineering. A few handpicked ones are mentioned below:
In some universities, the admission committee cannot tell in advance if you are qualified for admission. In such cases, you must contact the university directly with a copy of your transcript for evaluation purposes. To inquire if about the eligibility criteria at a particular university, you can use the below template to mail to them:
Hi,
I am (insert name), a prospective student looking to enroll in your Master’s in (insert course name). I was looking at your course page for the eligibility criteria and I wish to know the minimum grades required for an undergraduate international student from (country where you did your undergraduate degree) to enroll in that course. It would be great if you can provide me with info regarding this, thank you!
If you wish to secure funded admit to universities like the ones here, all you have to do is enroll with us and complete the projects in our coursework. These projects can help you get a funded admit/scholarship when you transfer abroad.
