What to check
- Most bachelor programmes in Germany are taught in German; daily life and studies require at minimum B2 level.
- Non-EU school leavers may need to complete a Studienkolleg before university admission is possible.
- Germany requires proof of funds via a blocked account (Sperrkonto) of around €11,904 for the visa — significant upfront capital.
- International students are allowed only 120 full or 240 half working days per year, limiting earnings.
- München has one of Germany's most competitive rental markets; finding affordable accommodation takes time and planning.
