## About

Dietzhölztal is a quiet village in Hesse with countryside surroundings and a small-campus feel. Living costs are low, and the location offers peace for study combined with weekend access to Frankfurt and other cultural centres.

## Strengths

- Tuition is €0 per year, making this one of the most affordable university options in Germany for non-EU students.
- A German degree carries EU-wide recognition, giving graduates a credential accepted across Schengen member states.
- Germany grants international graduates an 18-month job-seeker visa to find employment after completing their degree.
- The IELTS minimum of 6.0 is accessible for motivated CIS applicants without exceptional test scores.
- Dietzhölztal's small-town setting means cost of living — rent, transport, food — is substantially lower than in major German cities.
- International students in Germany may work up to 120 full days or 240 half days per year to support themselves financially.

## Watch out for

- This is a specialised theology institution; applicants outside this field will find no relevant programmes here.
- Instruction is almost entirely in German — students must reach an advanced German level before or during studies.
- Non-EU school leavers typically must complete a preparatory year (Studienkolleg) or equivalent before enrolling in a German university.
- Germany requires proof of funds via a blocked account (Sperrkonto) of approximately €11,904 before a student visa is issued.
- The rural location near Dietzhölztal offers very limited internship, networking, and part-time job opportunities compared to urban campuses.

## Accommodation

- **University dormitory:** yes
- **Dormitory cost:** €200–280
- **Private housing:** €280–380
- **Rent figures describe:** the city of Dietzhölztal
- **How to apply:** Apply directly to the university's housing/student office as part of enrollment; single students are typically offered a campus dorm room automatically upon admission. Married students arrange private rental in the surrounding area themselves.
- **Notes:** On-campus dorm only for unmarried students; married students rent locally. Rooms are single occupancy with shared bathroom (2-3 students) and shared kitchen/common room per floor. Dietzhölztal is a small rural village with essentially no private rental market, so off-campus housing is not a realistic option for most students.
