Although the physics studies are not restricted, the enrollment procedure begins with a paperless application via the PAUL online portal of the University of Paderborn.

First you create a user account, then you choose the desired study course - i.e. physics - and follow the steps through the system. Before filling in, you should have your certificate documents ready!

The choice of study option (mathematics, natural science or semester abroad) does not have to be made when enrolling, but is made indirectly during the study course by choosing the respective lectures.

By the way: a minor or secondary subject is already integrated in the study course in physics: mathematics. Only if you enroll for a teaching qualification in physics can you choose the second subject. Mathematics is suitable for this due to the large synergy effects.
