NOTE!
In view of the fact that some of the tests have a term of validity fixed for e.g. two years from the date of issue, we kindly ask that the students check the validity of the certificate. Certificates which expired will not be taken into account.
Submission of the certificate in the office of the DFL does not mean that the certificate has automatically awarded the student with an exemption from the foreign language qualification as the Study Abroad Scholarship Eligibility Requirement.
