## About

Bremen is in northern Germany, a major port city on the Weser River with a rich maritime history. Living costs are lower than in southern German cities (~€700–800/month). The city has a compact, walkable old town and a strong healthcare and research sector, with several large hospitals and research institutes.

## Strengths

- Tuition of €4,800 per year is moderate for a German private university, where peer institutions often charge €8,000–15,000 annually.
- Specialises in health, psychology, social work, and nursing — fields with strong and growing labour demand across Germany.
- An EU/Schengen diploma is recognised across 27 member states, widening your career geography beyond Germany alone.
- Germany grants non-EU graduates an 18-month post-study job-seeker visa, giving structured time to convert a degree into employment.
- Bremen is a mid-size Hanseatic city with a compact student scene, lower cost of living than Munich or Frankfurt, and solid healthcare-sector employers nearby.
- An IELTS minimum of 6.0 is an accessible entry threshold for motivated CIS applicants with standard English preparation.

## Watch out for

- This is a private university: unlike most German public universities, it charges tuition, and public alternatives in Bremen cost little to nothing for EU students.
- Non-EU applicants must prove financial self-sufficiency via a German blocked account (Sperrkonto), currently around €11,904 per year — a significant upfront capital requirement.
- Daily life, internships, and clinical placements in Bremen operate primarily in German; limited German proficiency will restrict your practical integration and career options.
- Non-EU school leavers whose secondary diploma is not directly recognised in Germany may need to complete a preparatory year (Studienkolleg) or preparatory college year before admission.
- As a specialised private institution, the campus network and alumni base are smaller than at large public research universities, which may limit internship and research connections.

## Accommodation

- **University dormitory:** no
- **Private housing:** €380–470
- **Rent figures describe:** the city of Bremen
- **How to apply:** Not applicable — APOLLON is a Fernstudium (distance-learning) institution with no institutional housing process. Students who choose to attend the optional twice-yearly introductory seminar or sit an in-person exam in Bremen arrange short-term private accommodation on their own (e.g. hotels, WG-Gesucht, Airbnb).
- **Notes:** APOLLON Hochschule is a 100% distance-learning (Fernstudium) institution with no residential campus — coursework and even exams can be completed entirely online, so dormitory housing is not applicable. The only in-person option is two optional annual introductory seminars in Bremen; students attending these (or opting for local exam sittings) arrange private accommodation themselves, as APOLLON students are not eligible for Studierendenwerk Bremen dorms (limited to Universität Bremen, Hochschule Bremen, HfK Bremen and Hochschule Bremerhaven).
