Entry Requirements

German Language

German B2 is required by the time of enrollment for all applicants without German citizenship or a German university entrance qualification (Hochschulreife); accepted proof: DSH, TestDaF, or telc. Some programmes require the German level already at the time of application (before the application deadline), with higher thresholds: C1 for Bachelor/Master Lehramt Musik an Gymnasien (music teacher training) and for Bachelor of Music with a Musikforschung/Medienpraxis (music research/media practice) focus; B2 for Bachelor/Master of Music with Conducting (Dirigieren) as main subject and for Master of Music/Solistische Ausbildung, Voice with an Opera focus; A2 for Master of Arts (Tanz/Tanzpaedagogik - Dance/Dance Pedagogy). Missing the required certificate by the application deadline leads to exclusion from the admissions process for those programmes. Applicants who cannot yet prove B2 German at enrollment are automatically placed into a free language test and preparatory German course run jointly with the University of Mannheim.
