    2. A natural science subject (Physics, Chemistry, Biology).
    3. Mathematics (Mathematical Methods or Mathematics HL or Further Mathematics in conjunction with Mathematics HL).
    4. A social science subject (History, Geography, Economics, Psychology, Philosophy, Social Anthropology and Business and Management.
    5. The sixth compulsory subject may, in addition to the subjects specified above, be taken from one of the following subjects: - Art/Design, Music, Theatre Arts; Film, Literature and Performance, another modern foreign language, Latin, Classical Greek, General Chemistry, Applied Chemistry, Environmental Systems, Computer Science, Design Technology, World Religions, Sports Exercise and Health Science.
  2. Among the three Higher Level subjects must be either Mathematics or a natural science subject (Physics, Chemistry, Biology).
  3. All subjects must be done in two consecutive years in the IB Diploma Programme.
  4. The sixth required subjects must have a minimum IB-Grade “4”. If only one subject has an IB-Grade “3”, it can be compensated by another subject of the same level of proficiency with a minimum IB-Grade “5” with at least a total of 24 points.

If the above requirements are not met by the student, the student can still enroll at the university after joining the Studienkolleg and successfully completing the “Feststellungsprüfung” (FSP) for the corresponding field of study.

American High School Diploma

Students are eligible to enroll in the Studienkolleg if they achieve a minimum unweighted Cumulative Grade Point Average (CumGPA) of 3.0. Students have to also provide evidence of completing the following subjects:

16 academic units from 9th to 12th grade:

English

4 units

English IV or Honors or AP English each with a minimum grade “C”

2nd Language

2 units

 

Social Studies

3 units

 

Mathematics

2 or 3 units

Algebra II or trigonometry (11th grade) and Precalculus (12th grade) each with minimum grade C

Science

2 or 3 units

Minimum grade “C” in each of Biology, Chemistry or Physics

5 mathematics and science units

2 elective units

 

If the student only completed grades 10-12 at the high school, then only 3 units for English are required.

Please note: Up-coming winter term 2019/2020 German universities will no longer accept a Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) in addition to the High School Diploma for direct admission.
