TestDaF: what the mark means
TestDaF is the German language exam for admission to German universities and is recognised by all of them. It is developed by the TestDaF-Institut of the non-profit g.a.s.t. (founded 2000; institute in Bochum). A licensed TestDaF test centre may run the exam on site under g.a.s.t.'s standardised rules; the licence concerns exam administration, not course quality.
TestDaF is exam centre. Our catalogue has 6 schools with it in 6 cities, 115 courses; a week of a main course from €131.
