If you have some knowledge of German, but are uncertain of which level to register for, we offer placement testing. The placement process consists of a 60-question multiple choice exam that is not timed. Once you submit the exam, it will be graded, and our Language Program Coordinator, Tanja Schmitz, will reach out with your placement. Should you have questions or concerns about your results, please email Tanja.Schmitz@nyu.edu.
Important Note: We highly recommend that you make a back-up of your placement test before submitting by taking screenshots of the completed test. If you are experiencing technical difficulties submitting the test online, please download the PDF version, fill it out in Adobe Acrobat (the answers will not save if you fill them out in your web browser), and submit it as an email attachment to deutsches.haus@nyu.edu. If you do not receive a confirmation email within a week of your submission, please send the screenshots or the completed PDF version of the test to deutsches.haus@nyu.edu.
