What to check
- Most bachelor programmes in Germany are taught in German; confirm English-track availability before applying.
- Non-EU school leavers often must complete a Studienkolleg or equivalent before university admission in Germany.
- Germany requires proof of funds via a blocked account (Sperrkonto) of approximately €11,904 per year before a visa is issued.
- Brandenburg an der Havel is a small city with a limited local job and internship market; Berlin is the nearest major hub.
- International students may work up to 120 full or 240 half days per year, which restricts income during studies.
