Feststellungsprüfung

The Feststellungsprüfung is the final examination of the Studienkolleg. This enables students to attend any German university to study a Bachelor’s program.

You must take the Feststellungsprüfung after completing your foundation course semesters (twice a year). Depending on the foundation course you have selected, you will be testing on various subjects (M-, T-, or W-course). In addition to written exams, the fourth subject will also include an oral exam.

A Studienkolleg has two semesters, each of which lasts one year on average. If a student’s performance is subpar, a semester may be repeated once.

The external assessment test in Cologne occurs twice a year and may only be repeated once. There are two parts to the examination: a written part and an oral part. After passing the exam you can access all public Universities in Germany.

The internal assessment test Feststellungsprüfung (FSP) occurs at the end of the course (in December/January or June/July). After passing the exam you can access our Partner University.
