There are many good reasons why you would want to study in Germany - we compiled the 10 biggest benefits of studying in Germany here for you:
Outstanding universities
German universities are among the highest ranked universities in the world. Studying in Germany you will obtain excellent higher education that is highly acclaimed and recognized all around the world.
Wide range of study programs
You can study almost anything you can imagine in Germany. Especially in fields like Engineering, Economics, Culture or Natural Sciences, you can choose from a wide range of specialized and content-rich study programs that will equip you with every skill you need to launch your professional career and give you a headstart into your working life.
Programs taught in English
There are more than 1300 degree programs offered in German universities that are taught fully in English.
Low to no tuition fees
Most study programs taught in public universities in Germany don't require any tuition fees - you will just pay a small semester contribution of less than 400€ per semester (depending on the universities). Of course there are also many private universities that offer highly specialized or niche courses, that we can also place you in if you wish so.
Large selection of scholarships
No matter what you study or where you come from, there is a huge selection of scholarships offered by the German Academic Foreign Service (DAAD) and many private institutions especially for international students looking to study in Germany.
Germany is a safe and stable country
Since many decades, Germany is very stable when it comes to economy and politics, and the German economy and labour market are growing even throughout the Covid-19 crisis. The Euro currency that is used in Germany is also very stable and doesn't fluctuate.
International and multi-cultural environment
Diversity and a multi-cultural society are embraced and desired in Germany. You will therefore find many international students, but also millions of German citizens with a migration background from hundreds of countries in Germany. Especially the English-taught degree programs and larger university cities in Germany provide an international environment where you will come to meet a lot of different people from all sorts of backgrounds and broaden your horizon.
Affordable cost of living
Compared to most other countries in Northern and Western Europe, the cost of living in Germany is surprisingly low. Especially food is really affordable in Germany, but you can also find affordable student housing, low energy prices, and much more.
Excellent economic perspectives and career opportunities
The German economy and labour market are growing and due to demographic change, there will be an increasing shortage of skilled workers in Germany. If you obtained your higher education in Germany and maybe learned some German on the way, you have excellent perspectives on the German job market and you can build your life in this thriving economy.
Explore Europe with your student visa
The visa for international students in Germany allows you not only to stay inside Germany and work part-time during your studies, it also lets you travel the entire Schengen area without having to obtain additional visa. You can therefore use your weekends and semester breaks to travel most of Europe and expand your horizon even more.
Student jobs and fair wages
As mentioned in 10., your German student visa allows you to make use of the German "working student" rule (Werkstudent). This rule allows you to work part-time while studying in Germany. You can work up to 20 hours per week during your semester, so e.g. after class or on the weekends. During your semester break, you can work up to 40 hours per week. Working alongside your studies will not only provide you with extra money to fund living and traveling, it will also enhance your CV and increase your employability as you already gain real-life work experience in the German economy. You will also earn a fair salary, as the minimum wage in Germany right now is 10,45€ per hour.
Cultural and social life
Last but not least, Germany is rich in culture and history. Hundreds of historic cities, sights, nature reserves, museums, theatres, concerts, festivals, clubs, restaurants, ... are waiting to be explored. What are you waiting for?

Getting rejected for a study program can happen, but it is unlikely. We are experienced in what we are doing and will minimize the risk of rejections through a.) extensively pre-screening your documents looking for common "rejection red flags", and b.) only recommending and applying for study programs that suit your situation. We strongly believe in tailoring our offers to the needs of each student, so we look at your qualifications and preferences carefully and search for study programs that are likely to except you with your individual prerequisites.
However, if it does happen and you do not get a single admission letter, we will start a new round of applications to different programs.
