Some Universities offer online form to fill. You need to be very careful when you apply - check the form couple of times before sending it.
You need to translate your documents into the language that is required by the University.
Your level need to be minimum B2, but the level and the score may be different depending on the University.
Ask your teachers or your boss (of you have a job experience) to write a positive letter about your best qualities.
In this letter you need to tell them why you have chosen this course, why you opted for that particular university, what are you planning to do after the course, interests and other personal details. A well written motivation letter will be the key to your way into the university. So take a good amount of time before you submit it.
Please read this example of motivation letter, pay attention to words in bold that you could use in your own motivation letter!
