Students need around 850 euros per month to cover the cost of living in Germany. In large cities, the costs can vary considerably depending on the place of residence. For example, you should plan to spend more to live and study in Munich than in Leipzig. In general, students can live with less money in small cities than in larger ones. Of course, the amount you will need will ultimately depend on your financial situation. The rent of the apartment includes most of the monthly expenses. However, rental prices in Germany vary considerably. Depending on the location of your university, you will pay between 210 and 360 euros per month per accommodation. Rental prices in some major cities, such as Cologne, Munich, Hamburg, Düsseldorf, and Frankfurt am Main, are much higher in comparison. If you want to live with little money, it may be advisable to take a room in a student residence or a shared flat (WG). Students are eligible for any price reductions. By presenting your student card at the ticket office, you can benefit from discounts on admission fees to theaters, museums, opera houses, cinemas, public swimming pools, and other cultural venues.

Tuition Fees in Germany

The majority of higher education institutions in Germany are financed by the state. As a rule, fees do not apply to Bachelor’s courses or to most Master’s courses offered at state higher education institutions. Study fees may apply to specific continuing education Master’s programs, which are not, however, particularly high when compared with other countries. Higher fees may be charged for studies completed at private higher education institutions. However, the Federal State of Baden-Wuerttemberg has decided to charge non-EU citizens study fees amounting to €1,500 per semester for study courses (Bachelor’s, Master’s, Diplom, state examination) with effect from the winter semester 2021/2022. Doctoral students are not affected by these fees. Students who have already embarked on their studies in Baden-Wuerttemberg but who will not have completed their courses by the WS 2021/22 will not be subject to the above-mentioned fees. Courses such as Medicine, Law, Humanities, Engineering, and other courses are been offered at about 300 Universities in Germany. Most courses are taught in German with a few taught in English.

How to get a Germany Student VISA to Study Free 

One important aspect of schooling abroad is a student visa. The school will provide an invitation letter after applying which will be needed when applying for a student visa. The applicant will go to the embassy in their home country with documents such as results, health insurance, passport photographs, International passport, and others. When this is done the applicant will be told when to come for an interview. It is important to note that applicants will have to open a German block account of 7000 Euros before the visa can be obtained. Applicants should not be bothered as the embassy will guide them on the procedure in doing it. HERE ARE SOME TOP UNIVERSITIES IN GERMANY
