The German C1 courses are aimed at international applicants who have been admitted to study at the UdK Berlin and have B2 level language skills. Interested UdK students can also participate if there are places available.
You can register online via UdK Berlin Career College from May 2026 onwards. There you will also find all the latest information on costs, course times, etc.
Course fee including examination for course participants who are not yet enrolled but have been admitted to the UdK: €540
Course fee for enrolled UdK students: €200
Payment in two instalments is possible.
The course is assessed through a language portfolio that demonstrates the student's language proficiency. The portfolio includes written work, audio or audio-visual assessments and oral assignments completed in class.
Successful completion of the portfolio will prove competent use of the language (C1) in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This will be accepted internally by UdK Berlin as proof of language proficiency (“Sprachnachweis”).
