The following language tests, for example, are recognized for this purpose: DSH-2, TestDaF (4 points in all four test areas), telc C1 Hochschule, Goethe-Zertifikat C1.

Do you have another language certificate? Please contact us so that we can check whether it can be recognised.

You do not have your C1 test result yet? To apply, you need a B2 or C1 language certificate and a confirmation of enrolment for one of the recognised tests listed above. The successful test result must then be submitted by 28.02. (application for the summer semester) or by 31.08. (application for the winter semester).

Applicants for the BA degree programmes "Social Work", "Religious Education and Diaconia", "Early Education" and "Inclusive Education" must have completed a pre-study internship in a practical area relevant to their studies (duration: 3 months full-time).

Detailed information on the pre-study internship can be found here: Vorpraktikum (in German)
