Preparatory German Language Course

The summer semester will start online

The university will start teaching on April 20 and all courses will have to start online. As soon as the government allows classroom teaching again, the courses will be continued as classroom courses on campus.

Registration to the course is not possible any more.

The following information is relevant for those already registered to the course:

Placement Test

The placement test will be done online on April 20  - 22. If you do not de-register from the course by April 15, we will automatically inform you about the placement test on April 16: We will send you information on when and how you will do the placement test.

After the placement test we will inform you on April 23, if you can join the course and how much of the course fees you still have to pay. You will have to pay the rest of the course fees (you already paid EUR 450) by April 24.

Start of Classes

Classes will start on May 7. In order for you to have online classes as of May 7, you will have to pay the course fees by April 24. If you pay later, you may not be able to join your online class on time before May 7.

Please note: Priority will be given to students who are already in Germany

The preparatory German course will start online. As soon as the German authorities will allow classroom teaching again, the course will be continued as a classroom course on Stuttgart University campus.

That is why priority in the admission process will be given to students who have already entered Germany and will therefore be able to continue the course as a classroom course without delay and difficulties.

Students who cannot be in Germany by April 15, will only be admitted into the course if place is still available. As soon as the course is continued as a classroom course, students who are not in Germany will be given probably a 2 weeks' notice to travel to Stuttgart and join the course. After this deadline, online teaching will not be continued for them any more.

If you already are in Germany or if you can enter Germany before April 15, please send us a copy of your passport that proves your entry into Germany or a copy of your German residence permit by April 15, 12 a.m. We will give you priority in the admission process in this case .

If we cannot admit you into the course after the placement test, because you are not in Germany and because there is no place left in the course, we will refund your registration fee (EUR 450).

De-registration possible until April 15

If you prefer to de-register due to the exceptional circumstances, you can do so by email by April 15, 12 a.m.  If you de-register by this deadline, we will refund you beside the registration fee (EUR 450) the placement test fee (EUR 50) as well. If your admission is still valid in the coming winter semester (whether or not, is stated in your letter of admission), you can probably as of July register for the preparatory course starting in October. We hope that we will be able to offer the preparatory course in winter semester without the current difficulties and restrictions.

We apologize for only being able to offer the course under the above mentioned restrictions.

We look forward to meeting you in our course in May!

Your deposit (EUR 450) and placement test fee (EUR 50), in total EUR 500, and our confirmation of your registration to the German course guarantee you a place in the preparatory German language course (you'll need this e.g. for receiving your visa). The course fee down payment is a security for us that your course registration is binding. If you attend the course after your registration, your registration fee will be deducted from your course fees, i.e. you have already paid EUR 500 and will have to pay only the rest of your course fees.

An example: You paid EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee) and you are guaranteed a place in the course. You will need our confirmation that you have got a place for your visa application. After receiving your visa, you will come to Stuttgart, you will do the placement test at the start of the course and you are placed e.g. on level B2/C1. The level B2/C1 course fees are EUR 1.600 (please note: not the actual course fees!). The EUR 500 you already paid will be deducted from these EUR 1.600. So, you will actually have to pay EUR 1100 at the start of the course.

You transferred EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee), you were registered for the course but you have not yet been enrolled as a student of the University of Stuttgart, and you de-register before the registration deadline (by email): We will refund your deposit (EUR 450). The placement test fee (EUR 50) will not be refunded.

You transferred EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee), you were registered for the course and you de-register after the registration deadline (by email): We will refund your deposit (EUR 450) only if you cannot be held responsible for the reasons of your de-registration (e.g. if you are ill or your visa is issued too late). If you are responsible for the reasons of your de-registration, we will not refund your deposit. The placement test fee (EUR 50) will not be refunded.

You took the placement test and started the course, you already paid the course fees of your course (B1+B2 course, B2+C1 course or C1 course) and you de-register from the ongoing course: We will refund your course fees if you cannot be held responsible for the reasons of your de-registration (e.g. if you are ill and therefore cannot attend the course any more). In this case, we will refund the course fees for the part of the course that you cannot attend any more. If you are responsible for the reasons of your de-registration, we will neither refund your full course fees nor part of them.

This is the case as well if you pass the TestDaF exam in another test center or if you do not need any more the TestDaF exam at the end of our course and you want to leave the preparatory German course: In this case, we will neither refund your full course fees nor part of them.

3. Rücktritt und Erstattung der Gebühren bei Anmeldung und der Kursgebühren

4. Placement test

The email that confirms your course registration also invites you to the compulsory placement test at the start of the course. Students are placed in the different course levels according to their results in the placement test. The university is not obliged to take into account any German language course certificates issued by other institutions.

If you have already attended the preparatory German course offered by the University of Stuttgart in the previous semester, the decision is based on the final exam of the previous course level: If you pass the exam, you will proceed onto the next course level, in case of failing you will have to repeat the previous course level. If you attended a previous course and did not continue it for one semester or more, a placement test can be done again and its result can be taken into account.

4. Einstufung

5. Certificates and duplicates

Any kind of certification requires that students attend the course regularly. At the end of each course level, every student is given a certificate of performance (Zeugnis) that states the results of the final exam and the number of  teaching units (Unterrichtseinheiten). If a student attended the course regularly without taking the final examination, he or she can be given a certificate of attendance (Teilnahmebescheinigung) which states the number of teaching units only. In order to be given any certificate, students are required not to miss more than 10 % of their classes. Attendance and absence is documented on the attendance lists as kept by the teachers. Duplicates of certificates can be issued within 5 years after the attended course. Such duplicates are subject to a charge of EUR 25. More than 5 years after the attended course, certificates or duplicates cannot be issued any more.

5. Zeugnisse, Bescheinigungen, Zweitausfertigungen

6. Data protection

The International Office (IZ) records the students' personal data only for administrative purposes and does not submit them to any third party. It keeps students' personal data for 5 years in order to be able to issue duplicates at the students' request.

6. Datenschutz

All information stated below is based on the assumption that in winter semester 2020/21 classroom teaching will be possible again as of November.

However, since due to the current Corona situation it cannot be guaranteed that classroom teaching can start again as of November, please visit this website regularly: As soon as we know that the coming winter semester cannot be as currently planned, we will announce the changes here for you.

First of all: Apply for admission

Please apply for admission to study at the University of Stuttgart via the online portal C@mpus. Afterwards, please wait for the decision of the Admissions Office.

Letter of admission and invitation to the course

If you are admitted for winter semester 2020/21 by the Admissions Office, you will receive an inivitation to the preparatory German language course via C@MPUS. You can register for the course by paying the deposit and the fee for the placement test (in total EUR 500). The invitation letter indicates the university's bank details and the payment deadline.

Register by paying EUR 500

After receiving the invitation to the preparatory German language course, please transfer the amount of EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee) by September 4 to the university's bank account as stated in the invitation to the German language course you received from the Admissions Office in order to register for the German course. These EUR 500 will later be deducted from your course fees.

Please remember: You first have to apply for admission at the University of Stuttgart and you have to have received a letter of admission from the University of Stuttgart. Without an admission from the University of Stuttgart for the winter semester 2020/21, we will not admit you in the German course even if you pay EUR 500.

Why EUR 500 and what has still to be paid later?

Your deposit (EUR 450) and placement test fee (EUR 50), in total EUR 500, and our subsequent confirmation of your registration to the German course guarantee you a place in the preparatory German language course (you'll need this e.g. for applying for your visa). The course fee down payment is a security for us that your course registration is binding. If you attend the course after your registration, these EUR 500 will be deducted from your course fees, i.e. you have already paid EUR 500 and will have to pay only the rest of your course fees.

An example: You paid EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee) and our subsequent confirmation guarantees you a place in the course. You will need our confirmation that you have got a place for your visa application. After receiving your visa, you will come to Stuttgart, you will do the placement test at the start of the course and you are placed e.g. on level B2/C1. The level B2/C1 course fees are EUR 1.600 (please note: not the actual course fees). The EUR 500 you already paid will be deducted from these EUR 1.600. So, you will actually have to pay only EUR 1.100 at the start of the course.

Our confirmation

As soon as your EUR 500 (deposit + placement test fee) have been credited to the university's account, we will send you an email. It may take up to 5 or 7 days until your down payment appears in our account and only after that we will be able to send you our email. As long as place is still available in the course, we confirm to you by this email that you have been registered to the university's preparatory German language course and invite you to the placement test. You may need this confirmation and invitation for your visa application.

Places are limited

Please note that the number of places is limited and places in the course will be given to students according to the order of their registration fee as received by us. If the course is fully booked before September 4, we may decline further registrations even before the deadline. (in this case we will refund your complete EUR 500)

We have got to receive EUR 500

There may be additional bank charges on international money transfer that you may have to pay (please ask your bank). Due to the limited places and high demand, incomplete payments will not be accepted.

De-registration?

Your course registration is binding. If you de-register before September 4 (by email), we will refund your deposit of EUR 450. After September 4, refund of your deposit will not be possible anymore. Exception: You cannot attend the course for reasons you cannot be held responsible for, e.g. illness or delayed issue of your visa.

The placement test fee (EUR 50) will not be refunded. If you cannot join the course for reasons you cannot be held responsible for you can ask for a refund of the fees. Please contact us via e-mail. A refund is only possible within the semester you have registered for. After the end of the semester your deposit cannot be refunded. 

Placement test

The decision on your level in the course (B1, B2 or C1) will be based on your result in the placement test (onSET) that you will have to take after your course registration, at the beginning of the course in October.

About 4 - 7 days before the placement test, we will send you an email that invites you once more to the placement test and contains your user name and password for the online placement test. You have to bring your user name and password on the day of the placement test. Please do not try to log in before the placement test. You will log in using your user name and password only at the beginning of the placement test.

Placement Test: The placement test will take place between October 12 and 16 and it will be - according to our current plans - an online test. So, you will probably not have to be at Stuttgart University for the placement test.

Please check this website regularly for any changes regarding time and form (online or classroom) of the placement test.

We are looking forward to meeting you here in November in our new German language course

Students are placed in the different course levels according to their results in the placement test. The university is not obliged to take into account any German language course certificates issued by other institutions.

If you have already attended the preparatory German course offered by the University of Stuttgart in the previous semester, the decision is based on the final exam of the previous course level: If you pass the exam, you will proceed onto the next course level, in case of failing you will have to repeat the previous course level. If you attended a previous course and did not continue it for one semester or more, a placement test can be done again and its result can be taken into account.

5. Certificates and duplicates

Any kind of certification requires that students attend the course regularly. At the end of each course level, every student is given a certificate of performance (Zeugnis) that states the results of the final exam and the number of teaching units (Unterrichtseinheiten). If a student attended the course regularly without taking the final examination, he or she can be given a certificate of attendance (Teilnahmebescheinigung) which states the number of teaching units only. In order to be given any certificate, students are required not to miss more than 10 % of their classes. Attendance and absence is documented on the attendance lists as kept by the teachers. Duplicates of certificates can be issued within 5 years after the attended course. Such duplicates are subject to a charge of EUR 25. More than 5 years after the attended course, certificates or duplicates cannot be issued any more.
