As early as the end of the 1990 s, the advantages and disadvantages of the DSH examination as well as the possibility of its further development were already being discussed. The question of centralised or decentralised design played a major role in the debate. This article discusses terms that are central for the DSH: linguistic study skills, study relevance, and academic orientation.Furthermore, the article shows how the quality assurance of all university entrance examinations, introduced in the RO-DT of 2011, shapes today's design of the DSH. This article also reveals which role FaDaF plays in this process, supporting German universities in implementing uniform quality standards. Criteria catalogues for the creation and assessment of examinations play a special role. In addition, the article deals with the sample DSH and the DSH manual that are based on it. In the final section, the innovations of the DSH examination regulations are also highlighted.The article thus sheds light on how the DSH, as a decentralized examination designed by universities for universities, is trying to meet the challenges of the 21st century in the field of activity between universities, HRK, FaDaF and the DSH office.
