What Are The Study Options After A-Levels/STPM?

If your qualification is not directly recognized, you may need to do a Studienkolleg (a one-year preparatory course). 

Can you study in Germany directly after SPM / IGCSE?

No. You will need a pre-university qualification like A-Levels, STPM or IB first before you can apply. You can apply to do your A-levels in Malaysia and even get a scholarship to cover the fees for your A-levels. Apply here!

💡 With over 400,000 international students in Germany, more Malaysians are choosing Germany as their study destination! 

Can Malaysians Study in Germany Without Knowing German? 

Yes! You don’t need to learn German to study in Germany if you apply for an English-taught program. 

📌 For English-Taught Programs: You need IELTS (6.0–6.5) or TOEFL (80–100). 

📌 For German-Taught Programs: You need TestDaF, DSH, or Goethe Certification (B2–C1 level). 

💡 However, learning German will make daily life easier and improve job opportunities in Germany.
