Transferring to study Medicine at a higher semester

Hello,

I am a 3rd year medical student from Ain Shams University in Egypt, and my university teaches using modules. I would like to know whether it would be possible to transfer here using my existing credit hours. 3rd year is the last pre-clinical phase, and clinical modules start at 4th year. I would like to know what the requirements are to successfully transfer and continue my education at your university, with the hopes of graduating and working in Germany. I do not know German at the moment but am willing to learn as much as needed.

I couldn't find a place to contact and ask this question other than this forum. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

Sincerely,
Islam
