17 Universities in Germany Without IELTS (2027 Intake)

City: Karlsruhe | Level: Master’s programs, university-wide (individual programs may set stricter rules)

IELTS alternative: a university degree with English stated as the sole language of instruction and examination in your certificate, transcript, or diploma supplement; otherwise TOEFL iBT 90, IELTS Academic 6.5 (no band below 5.5), or Cambridge CAE/CPE.

KIT is a Baden-Württemberg university, so the €1,500/semester non-EU tuition fee applies here too. Check your specific program’s page, since KIT notes some programs set different requirements.
