Interpreting the conditions of studying in Germany;
German universities have high gold content and relatively low fees, but few people go to Germany to study. Then, what conditions do you need to apply for studying in Germany, and what preparations do you need to make in advance for those who intend to study abroad?
1 Application qualification is linked with academic qualifications:
Germany treats applicants with different academic qualifications differently. High school graduates are not eligible to apply for German universities (including pre-university courses). If you want to study in Germany, you must pass the "National Unified College Entrance Examination" after graduating from high school in basic education and enter undergraduate or three-year junior college. Then, according to the status of the original university, whether to change majors when studying abroad, and so on, individuals can determine how long they will study in China University before they can apply for German universities.
Those who meet the following conditions can apply for admission to German universities.
If the applicant graduated from high school in 12 years: four-year undergraduate course in key university, 1-2 semester; Four-year undergraduate courses in colleges and universities have completed three semesters; Four-year undergraduate courses in ordinary colleges and universities have completed 1 semester, and passed the "College Entrance Qualification Examination" held by German preparatory schools, and obtained the qualification for admission to German universities.
If the applicant graduated from an eleven-year high school: a four-year undergraduate course in a key university, with at least three semesters; Or enter a four-year undergraduate course in an ordinary university for at least five semesters.
There are several points to note here: China recognizes the bachelor's degree or three-year college degree from a formal institution officially recognized by the German people and the Ministry of Education, and the academic qualifications from an informal university or informal higher education are usually not recognized; Applicants studying in Germany do not change their major direction. If you choose a new major, you generally need to start from scratch, study in the preparatory course first, and obtain the "university entrance qualification" through the "qualification examination"; German institutions of higher learning can usually be divided into three types according to the characteristics of discipline setting. One is a comprehensive university. There are many disciplines and specialties, paying attention to systematic theoretical knowledge and paying equal attention to teaching and scientific research. The length of study is generally 4-6 years. One is the University of Applied Sciences. The scale is not large, and there are not many majors, but the curriculum and content are biased towards application, with obvious characteristics. The study period is generally 4-4.5 years. One is the Art College and the Conservatory of Music. The study period is usually 3.5-5 years. College students are only allowed to apply for "Applied Science University".
In addition, graduates of three-year colleges and universities must attend preparatory courses or pass the "College Entrance Qualification Examination" of preparatory courses before they can enter German universities. Students and graduates from two-year colleges in China, students from three-year colleges in China and students from vocational colleges are not eligible to apply. Adult education, self-taught examination, TV University and Evening University are not recognized by Germany, but if students can apply for a bachelor's degree after the examination, their degree certificates and undergraduate transcripts will be certified by the National Academic Degree and Postgraduate Education Development Center of the Ministry of Education of China, and they will be qualified to study in Germany. Passed the examination of German Audit Department and obtained the same treatment as other ordinary full-time undergraduate graduates. Experts suggest that such students should strive to improve their grades in various courses in China so as to obtain the conditions for applying for a bachelor's degree.
2. Language:
According to experts studying abroad, language problem is a difficult problem for most students studying in Germany. When applying for admission, except for international courses and individual majors, universities generally require applicants to study German for more than 800 hours, and many require students to take the DSH exam or show other valid language certificates when they enter the school. At present, there are two authoritative German exams: TestDaF and DSH.
DSH, the German test for foreign students to apply for university entrance. Organized, proposed and graded independently by German universities. The school will inform the applicant of the time and place of DSH in the admission notice. The exam is very difficult. If the candidate fails the first time, he can take 1 time (up to 2 times) after half a year. If you don't pass DSH in one university, you can't take this exam in other universities.
TestDaF, the German overseas exam. The exam is set and graded by the German "Dafu Examination Institute". The exams are held in Dafoe test centers in Germany and some countries. Those who pass the Telford exam get a language certificate. China students can take the exam at authorized or officially designated test sites.
There is no difference in grade between the two exams, but at present, German public universities recognize the TestDaF certificate, and those who reach grade 5 can be exempted from DSH and enter the school directly. China students who apply to study in German universities are basically required to provide Telford test scores. After getting the language certificate, you can send the complete application materials to Germany. In the future, the certificate of "DaFuKao" may replace the certificate of German hours. DSH scores are not recognized by all schools. In addition, different people have different reactions to the difficulty of the two, and many people think that TestDaF is more difficult.
In addition, not all German universities teach in German, and some schools will arrange English or English-German bilingual courses. Experts suggest that some applicants with low German level can consider international degree courses in Germany. The course is taught in English at the basic stage of the first year, while learning German, and then taught in German at the professional stage. TOEFL or IELTS scores must be provided when applying. TOEFL scores are generally above 550, IELTS scores are above 6, and liberal arts requirements are above 6.5. Some majors require a basic knowledge of German, with at least 200 class hours, but they don't need to pass DSH or TestDaF.
