Incoming Students | Internationals
Although students may attend Zeppelin Universität in several capacities, international students generally enroll as either degree-seeking students or as guest students from a partner university. Students whose aim it is to enrol in a course of study at ZU leading to the completion of an undergraduate or graduate degree apply for admission alongside other applicants from Germany. This formal application process is guided by the Zeppelin Universität Office of Admissions.
Procedures for Admission: Exchange Students
Students who intend to spend a semester exchange at ZU will apply as non-degree-seeking guest students directly to the ZU International Office.
- Students who wish to visit ZU for one semester within the framework of a partnership agreement should first notify the international office at their home institution.
- Incoming students will receive notification of formal admission as an exchange student to ZU, assistance with questions regarding the student visa, housing, and general day-to-day activities associated with studying at ZU as well as life in the community.

- Exchange students are not required to demonstrate proficiency in the German language, for they will enroll in English language courses. TOEFL iBT or IELTS is required for one-semester exchange students. TOEFL iBT: 90 internet-based or IELTS 6.5 (applies to non-English Nations only)
