1. Register
You can register your interest in taking a German course at the Language Center by using Form I. The form is available online for about two weeks each semester. If you would like to attend a course held during the winter semester, you have to fill out the form in the second half of September; if you would like to attend a course held during the summer semester, you have to fill out the form in the second half of March (for summer semester 2025: between March 17 and March 31, 2025, 9:00 a.m.).

2. Take the placement test
You will receive an invitation to the placement test. You must then book a date to take your test (exemption: beginners and students that took the DSH exam at Freie Universität Berlin). The placement tests will be held during the two weeks before the German courses start (in summer semester 2025 between April 3 and April 9, 2025). You will be given three dates to choose from.

3. Enroll in a course
You will receive a link to enroll in a course that best matches your language level.

We strive to offer as many people as possible a place in our German courses. However, we are unable to guarantee everyone a spot. If we are unable to offer you a place, we will inform you via e-mail as soon as possible once the registration period has ended.
