About the program

From Indian Classrooms to German Universities

Structured, Compliant, and Tuition-Free

German Public Universities require Indian students to complete one year of university education after Grade 12. Recognising this as a critical gateway, Desh Bhagat University and Study Feeds have designed a seamless, one-stop pathway — giving students direct access to all German Public Universities, for both English-taught and German-taught programs.

Challenge

The Systemic Barrier

Thousands of deserving students are stopped every year — not because they aren’t capable, but because of a highly fragmented structural requirement.

The 13th Year Rule

German Public Universities mandate Indian students to complete exactly one year of formal university education after Grade 12 before they even become eligible to apply for a Bachelor's program.

Anabin H+ Compliance

Simply studying anywhere isn't enough. The first year must be completed at a specific, Anabin-compliant university holding an 'H+' status. Non-compliance results in outright rejection.

Fragmented Preparation

Students are forced to run between different institutes to clear mandatory aptitude tests like TestAS, clear language proficiencies like TestDaF, while simultaneously managing their standard university exams.
