Other certificates accepted instead of DSH-2 are:
- Zentrale Oberstufenprüfung
- Das Kleine und Große Sprachdiplom (Goethe Institute
- Sprachdiplom Stufe II (Kultusministerkonferenz)
- TestDAF (level 4 in all four exams)
Jena University offers a German language course preparing for DSH.
Since for certain courses the number of applicants is much higher than the places available they are subject to restricted admission and a selection process based on the applicant's average grade points of the secondary school leaving certificate. A certain percentage of places is reserved for international applicants.
