Sufficient German language skills are a requirement for foreigners seeking
to study or complete vocational training in Germany. The following are considered proof of sufficient language skills:
1. A diploma (Abitur) from a German-speaking school
2. The German-proficency test for university admissions (DSH 2 or 3)
3. The ZOP (Zentrale OberstufungPrfung) certificate from the Goethe Institute.
4. The German-as-a-foreign-language (TestDaF) test
ASL prepares its students for the four sections of the DaF test:
- Reading comprehension
- Listening comprehension
- Writing abilities
- Speaking abilities
The test is passed successfully when the test-taker achieves at least level
3 in all four sections of the test.
The Ludwig-Maximillians University (LMU), the Technical University of Munich
(TUM), and the Munich University of Applied Sciences (Fachhochschule München) usually require level 4 in the
four test sections.
Some universities in Germany also accept lower results (DaF level 3). Each
university has its own individual requirements for admissions. For this reason it is important that potential students ask
the international office of the universities they are applying to about the DaF results they
require. In some cases,
this information can be found on the internet.
ASL regularly offers very successful prepatory courses for Test-DaF. Over
six weeks students are prepared for test - giving them
excellent chances to reach their goals (level 4 or 5). The courses encompass
25 lesson hours and take place from 8:45 to 13:00.
Entry requirement: Participants must complete Intermediate level II/III
before registering for the course

Participants
may register for courses after the course start if they
meet the requirements
(placement test). We recommend
that you register as early as possible because the number of participants in
each course is restricted and potential students may be turned away once courses are
full.
