Courses offered at Studienkollegs in Germany

There are different type of courses offered at Studienkollegs depending upon your field of study and type of university. Generally you need to study and take exams on three subjects. Remember once you have attended a Studienkolleg for a particular field of study, you can't choose to study in a different field. In that event you have to redo the entire Studienkolleg studies again, which is sometimes not possible based on restrictions from the Visa administration office.
