## About

Weingarten is a small town in southwestern Germany, near Lake Constance. It's quiet, picturesque, and has very affordable living costs for Baden-Württemberg — around €400–500 per month for shared housing. The surrounding region is scenic and connected to both Swiss and Austrian job markets.

## Strengths

- At €3,000 per year, tuition is among the lowest for non-EU international students in Germany.
- Engineering, computer science, and business align directly with Germany's high-demand small and mid-sized companies (Mittelstand) job market.
- An IELTS 6.0 entry bar makes admission accessible without near-native English proficiency.
- A German university degree carries EU-wide recognition, opening labour markets across 27 countries.
- After graduation, Germany grants an 18-month job-seeker visa to search for skilled employment.
- The Lake Constance region hosts precision-engineering and tech firms, giving students proximity to relevant internship employers.

## Watch out for

- Baden-Württemberg charges non-EU students €1,500 per semester on top of the stated tuition — verify the final annual cost before applying.
- Most bachelor programmes are taught in German; daily life, administration, and many classes require solid German skills.
- Non-EU school leavers without a recognised Abitur equivalent typically must pass an entrance course (Studienkolleg) first.
- Germany requires a blocked account (Sperrkonto) with approximately €11,904 to prove one year of living costs before a visa is issued.
- Weingarten is a small town; internship variety and part-time job options are more limited than in Stuttgart or Munich.

## Accommodation
