When enrolling, applicants must demonstrate knowledge of the English language corresponding to level B1 of the European Framework of Reference for Languages.

Immediately upon beginning their studies, students must undergo placement tests to determine their knowledge of German and English and to be placed in courses in accordance with sentence 1. German language skills corresponding to level B2 are a prerequisite for admission to the German-language modules, as well as for admission to the German-language examinations from the 3rd semester onwards.
Qualification Requirements
Foreign applicants who are not equal to Germans through or on the basis of international treaties and who do not provide evidence of a university entrance qualification obtained in Germany must also prove their ability to study in a special examination. The special ability to study within the meaning of sentence 1 is deemed to be proven if the applicant has taken the subject of mathematics in the last 3 years of the previous education leading to direct university entrance and completed it with a grade of 2.0 or better.
