If your first language is English and you are a citizen of a majority English-speaking country OR you earned your Bachelor's degree in a majority English-speaking country, then you do not need to demonstrate English proficiency (Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Canada, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Ireland, Jamaica, Malta, New Zealand, St Kitts and Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, UK, USA). Evidence of German language proficiency is not needed Successful completion of the study programme doesn't necessitate German language skills.
