Important Notice
Registration for the TestDaF is completed online. The evaluation of the results for the paper-based TestDaF typically takes about 6 weeks.
Exam fee: € 215
The TestDaF is considered passed if at least TestDaF level 3 (TDN 3) is achieved in all four sections. Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU), Technische Universität München (TUM), and Hochschule München (HM) recognize TestDaF level 4 (TDN 4) in all test areas.
Many German universities also accept lower TestDaF scores (TDN 3). Since each university has its own admissions criteria, it’s essential to check the specific requirements of your chosen institution before applying. This information is typically available on the university's website.
As a licensed test center, we offer the opportunity to prepare for the TestDaF, register directly with us, and take the exam on-site.
