DAAD Language certificate

Test to assess language skills in English

You can take a DAAD exam in English at the SZHB. To do so, we ask that you first check your current language level by taking the C-Test (a placement test).

We recommend that you only take the DAAD English exam if you have achieved a C-Test result of B 2.2 or higher.

If your language level is below B 2.2, please send us an email requesting assistance.

Registration for dates in the 2025/26 winter semester

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email with a payment request—the exam fee is €20.

The DAAD English exam takes place on-site and consists of the following parts:

Reading an academic text (600 words) and summarizing the main content in 180 to 200 words.

Duration: 60 minutes

This is followed by an oral exam/discussion based on the topic presented in the text (duration: 15 minutes)

A maximum of five people are admitted to each exam session.

The DAAD language certificate is issued shortly after the exam.
