Study Guide Germany provides guidance on your linguistic path to studying in Germany by integrating service offers provided by external partners. The DAAD cooperates with g.a.s.t to integrate a language proficiency test which is used to recommend appropriate language classes. Relevant online courses are provided by the TH Lübeck (THL). For those seeking preparatory or subject-specific language courses at German higher education institutions, Study Guide also displays options sourced from the International Programmes (IP) database (for more information, see Data Sources under Programme Search).
