For this reason, good prior knowledge of the language is essential.

Proof can also be provided by means of an equivalent language test (e.g. TOEFL or Cambridge Certificate).

French, Spanish

Formal requirement for admission to study French and Spanish: level CEFR A2 (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) - this corresponds to at least three years of school French or Spanish (at least a 4.0 is required in the last school report).

If the applicant is proficient in more than one of the foreign languages mentioned at A2 level, he or she must decide which of these languages is to be taken as a second compulsory elective language at the latest at the time of enrollment.
