Faqs
- Is German university really tuition-free? — Public universities charge no or very low tuition even for international students, though you'll still need to budget for a semester contribution fee and living costs.
- Do I need to speak German to study there? — Not for most English-taught master's programs, though basic German helps with daily life and job hunting — some bachelor's programs do require German B2/C1.
- Is there also a vocational (Ausbildung) route, not just university? — Yes — Germany also offers Ausbildung, a paid dual vocational training path separate from university study. Ask us about it if a hands-on, paid trade route interests you more than a degree.
- Can I stay in Germany after graduating? — Graduates get an 18-month residence permit to search for a job related to their studies, which can lead to a Blue Card and long-term residency.
