Or alternatively, one successful year at a Studienkolleg type T.
- We can´t accept predicted grades for admission, we need your final results.
- If your school leaving certificate isn´t available within our application period or if a higher academic level than your school leaving certificate is required, you could apply with a SAT or ACT test score and later submit your school leaving certificate.
