Hi Sam,
First and foremost, you have to complete your undergraduate degree from a recognised university. You must be academically very strong and sound to be considered for admission in a German university. Normally if we look around, students who apply or being accepted by German institutions are very strong academically and have percentages in the range of 85 to 90% and above. Some other key requirements also include knowledge of German language although many universities do not require prior knowledge of German language. You must also take the IELTS. Your profile must be competitive and consist of excellent projects, research etc. For the application process you can visit the university-ASSIST portal. You must also refer to the DAAD website for study related information in Germany. Always check university websites too for specific details.
Hope this helps.
