Do you need an A2 German certificate for a student visa if you're studying in English?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 113 views

Even if you plan to study in English-taught programs, some consulates might still ask for proof of basic German language skills (usually A1 or A2) for your student visa application. This requirement can vary depending on the specific consulate and the German state (Bundesland) you're applying to. It's crucial to check the current requirements directly with official sources, like the German embassy or consulate in your home country.
