Courses in German as a foreign language

It is an advantage for foreign applicants for a place of study if they are able to attend a language course before leaving their home country. Sometimes these are offered by the home university or the German cultural institutions (e.g. the Goethe-Instititut) in the home country. The addresses of such institutions can be obtained from German embassies and consulates.

You will find the addresses of language schools in the so-called yellow pages (Gelbe Seiten) of the Telekom phone book. In Germany there are branches of the Goethe-Institut at which intensive language courses take place in various towns. Further information on these can be obtained from:
