We do not accept entrance examinations from other Studienkollegs.
Passing the entrance examination as well as the confirmation of the offered study slot (see information sheet for the entrance examination) are required for participation in the courses of the Studienkolleg.
Notes on entry
Once you have received the invitation to take the entrance examination you will need to apply for a visa for Germany at your relevant German foreign representation (embassy, consulate).

Depending on the country, a visa can take several weeks or months to be issued.
The visa is initially valid for 3 months and can be converted into a longer residence permit after passing the entrance examination.
