Yes, you can apply for master's programs in Germany while you are still learning German.

- For English-taught programs, German language skills are usually not required. You will typically need to show English proficiency through exams like IELTS.
- For German-taught programs, you must provide proof of German proficiency (such as TestDaF or DSH) before admission.

Check the language requirements for your chosen program. If you do not yet meet the German requirements for a German-taught course, you may need to improve your skills before applying. If you need help with next steps, reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
