Since 12.02.2016, passing telc Deutsch C1 Hochschule has been recognized at all German universities as a requirement for admission to university.

telc Deutsch C1 Hochschule tests university-related German language skills at a highly advanced level. The exam is aimed at adults who would like to study at a German-speaking university, who are already studying or working in an academic profession, and who would like to prove their German language skills.

With the new framework regulations on German language examinations for studying at German universities, "holders of a certificate for passing the telc Deutsch C1 Hochschule examination" are exempt from proving their linguistic ability to study.
