General information and admission requirements

Should you be planning to study in Germany or Hessen in particular, your first and most important point of contact is the international office (Akademisches Auslandsamt) or the student services (Studierendensekretariat/Studienservice) at the university or university of applied sciences of your choice. All necessary information on the application procedures will be provided by them. They will examine your higher education entrance qualification and your German language skills. If the documents provided do not suffice, students from abroad will be required to take an exam (Feststellungsprüfung).
