Can anyone tell me the best places to study english language at university?

Question

I want to study english language at university (clearly) and I was wondering where the best places would be to study it. Bearing in mind that I don't want to go too far away from London.

Answer 1

Actually, it would be a good idea to study English Language, not english language.

If you want to complete your studies at a Germean university you definitely need the DSH. There is no way around it. If your German is not good enough yet I would advice you to come to Germany as an Erasmus student first. Then you can study at a German university for a year or so and take German courses to improve your German in order to pass the DSH. You also have the chance to find out whether you really like it and want to stay for the time of your studies. The equivalent to the Abitur might be a problem. In Germany Abitur means that you have taken courses and passed exams in a variety of main subjects. This means, if you did your A-Levels in Math, English,Science, and German your chances are good that this will be accepted. A-Levels in cooking and similar subjects wont do. The grades you need depend on what you want to study. Your marks will be "translated" to the German system. For some subjects, like medicine, you need A-Levels in almost all school subjects, for other courses you don't. @ Melodram: We do have middle names. The problem ist, that we expect the complete name on an ID-card - that includes the middle name. So if one document states one person is called Jane Smith and another says Jane Susan Smith this does not nessecarily refer to the same person. Unlike in Britain we frequently use ID-cards and don't depend on three diffreet documents to prove one identity. Still I had my problems when I lived in Britain and suddenly everyone wanted to see a gas bill I didn't have so I understand that the German system seems strange if you are not used to it. But it is really a good idea to check all the documents before applying. Good luck!

Oxford, Cambrige if you have the grades.
