Enter a university abroad

Bachelor degree at UH

Schooling in Germany lasts longer than in other countries. Therefore, it is impossible to enter a university immediately after the 11th grade — first, you need to eliminate the academic difference. There are special educational institutions for foreign students — Studienkollegs. Before applying to the university, you need to pass an exam for knowledge of the English language. The university accepts the results of IELTS or TOEFL.

Master's degree at UH

To confirm your level of English, you must pass IELTS, PTE or TOEFL. The minimum TOEFL score for admission is 70. IELTS — 6.5 or higher.

What to do after graduation
