All students of the University of Oldenburg can book four foreign language courses of the Language Centre free of charge. In addition, a fee of currently 65 € (4 SWS) or 32 € (2 SWS) per course and semester is charged.
Registration with previous knowledge
If you have successfully completed the previous course at the Language Centre and would like to attend the follow-up course, register directly on Stud.IP.
If you have previous knowledge of the foreign language and did not take the previous course with us, you must first take a placement test.
