The Studienkolleg offers a two-semester preparatory program for applicants who do not yet have the necessary academic and/or language qualifications to apply to German universities of applied sciences.

There are two different programs:

The T-course: a technically-oriented program to prepare you for technical and engineering degree programs.

The W-course: a business-oriented program to prepare you for social sciences and business-oriented programs.

Students complete these programs by taking the “Feststellungsprüfung” (assessment test). Afterwards, you can apply to universities of applied sciences throughout Germany and to the universities in Baden- Württemberg.

The universities of applied sciences in Baden-Württemberg automatically accept our assessment test.

Please note: In the other German federal states, you must enquire whether that university recognizes our Feststellungsprüfung certificate before applying there.

Our preparatory programs take place at the Konstanz University of Applied Sciences, and you will be taught by lecturers and professors who also teach in our regular degree programs. The language of instruction is German.

If you attend the Studienkolleg, you will be enrolled at our university and will have access to the library, the computer center and the university's other services like all regular students.
