QUESTIONS THAT STUDENTS GENERALLY ASK ABOUT
STUDIENKOLLEG
3
Is it recommended to do a Foundation year or
Studienkolleg at a public university or private
university in Germany?

• Studienkolleg is a foundation course for
  international students who wish to pursue their
  bachelor from Germany . Germany follows 13yrs of
  education system and to compensate that one year,
  students are required to join the relevant
  studienkolleg.
• There are two bodies that runs the Studienkolleg
  one is under state public funded universities and
  the other is Private universities. For pursing a
  Studienkolleg at public university one should be
  fluent in German at least till B2 level and apart
  from this one should take an entrance test ,known
  as Aufnahmeprofung. Each Studienkolleg demands
  different requirements.
• In public Studienkolleg, one doesn't need to pay
  any tuition fee while on the other hand
  Studienkolleg at private universities comes with
  tuition fee.

What is the difference between 6 months of
Studienkolleg and 12 months of Studienkolleg?

• Here your question is a bit vague as you haven't
  mentioned which type of Studienkolleg are you
  talking about. A studienkolleg from a private
  university is for 6 months and from a public
  university if is for 12 months.
• At most universities studienkolleg lasts for 2
  semesters. Sometimes you can get admission to an
  assessment exam after the first semester of a
  university preparatory course. This depends on
  your grades in the first semester. I would
  suggest that you should only go for public
  universities. Few of the universitys
  ------complete foundation course within an year
  for example Wildau university (https//en.th-wilda
  u.de/). I would suggest that if this is the case
  then you can go for it, but this is only possible
  when you do not have German language skills.

How difficult is Studienkollg?

• Studienkolleg is a foundation course for
  international students who wish to pursue their
  bachelor from Germany. Germany follows 13yrs of
  education system and to compensate that one year,
  students are required to join the relevant
  studienkolleg.
• If we talk about difficulty level of
  Studienkolleg, it depends on student to student
  as some students are good at German and the
  medium of instruction at Studienkolleg is German.
  Frankly speaking this course is not difficult
  but sometimes it becomes challenging for students
  who lacks German language skills. To make sure
  your have already achieved this skill, the
  Studienkollegs require you to pass the DSH exam.
• Typically, Universities provide 5 types of
  Studienkolleg
• 1.M-STK For students wishing to study in
  Medical, Biological or Pharmaceutical degree
  program.
• 2.T-STK For students who wish to study
  Mathematics, Science (except biology) or
  Engineering programs.
• 3.W-STK For students who want to study
  Economics, Business Studies or Social Science
  oriented programs.
• 4. G-STK For students who want to study Arts
  and Humanities, Sociology, Culture or German
  Studies.
• 5. S-STK For students who wants to study
  languages (other than German) in Germany.

What does studying at a Studienkolleg consist of?

• Here your question is a bit vague as you haven't
  mentioned which type of Studienkolleg are you
  talking about. Studienkolleg is a foundation
  course for international students who wish to
  pursue their bachelor from Germany. Germany
  follows 13yrs of education system and to
  compensate that one year, students are required
  to join the relevant studienkolleg.
• Typically, Universities provide 5 types of
  Studienkolleg and each Studienkolleg demands
  different requirements. At most universities
  studienkolleg lasts for 2 semesters. Students at
  Studienkolleg have to pass two major exams, one
  is entrance test and the other one is final
  assessment. Sometimes you can get admission to an
  assessment exam after the first semester of a
  university preparatory course. This depends on
  your grades in the first semester. I would
  suggest that you should only go for public
  universities.

Are Studienkolleg independent for each University?

• There are two bodies that runs the Studienkolleg
  one is under state public funded universities and
  the other is Private universities. For pursing a
  Studienkolleg at public university one should be
  fluent in German atleast till B2 level and apart
  from this one should take an entrance test, known
  as Aufnahmeprofung. Each Studienkolleg demands
  different requirements.
• Yes, the Studienkollegs are independent for each
  university, only there are a few universities
  that combine the Studienkollege. For example, the
  Nordhausen University (https//www.hs-nordhausen.d
  e/en/) combines 2-3 Studienkollege. Usually
  Studienkollegen are conducted independently and
  it would depend on the course you are opting for
  in the university.

8
At what universities one can study without
Studienkolleg?

• Studienkolleg plays a very important role in
  Bachelor from Germany. Germany offers both
  English and German taught programmes for masters
  but in the case of Bachelor programmes most of
  the universities provide Bachelor programmes only
  in German. Whether you attend studienkolleg or
  not, in any case you have to take the final
  assessment that is known as FSP.
• Germany follows 13yrs of education system and to
  bridge that one-year gap, students are required
  to join the relevant studienkolleg with their
  streams. You can only skip the studienkolleg in
  case you have already studied in Indian
  university for a year with required German
  language skills.

German University?

• Studienkolleg is a foundation course for
  international students who wish to pursue their
  bachelor from Germany. Germany follows 13yrs of
  education system and to bridge that one year gap,

What are the requirements of particular
Studienkolleg?

• There are different kind of Studeinkolleg in
  Germany. The M-Stk is for courses including
  medicine and it requires core subjects like
  Biology, Physics and Chemistry. After

  courses such Applied Biomedical sciences,
  Biophysics, Biochemistry, Pharmacy, Molecular
  biology, Medicine technology, science of
  nutrition and many more similar courses.

  score of 12th Marks and your performance in FSP
