The digital TestDaF: Preparing international applicants for university study in Germany
Dr. Anja Peters, Sonja Zimmermann

For many international students the digital TestDaF constitutes the starting point on their student journey. The digital format allows for flexible test dates and fast availability of results, thereby facilitating student mobility. With its competency-based approach to language testing the TestDaF does not only certify the language competence required to study at a German university, but also contributes to applicants’ linguistic preparation.
