Germany is becoming one of the best study destinations for African students - but if you don't know the rules, you could lose your admission before you even land.
In this video, I break down the 5 things every African student must know before applying to study in Germany:
Tuition - Public universities are practically free, but some states charge non-EU students €1,500/semester
The Blocked Account - You must deposit €11,280 (~$12,000) before your visa application
The Visa - It's a residence permit, not a student visa, and it takes 2-3 months
Cost of Living - €850–€1,200/month depending on the city
Language - You can study in English, but you NEED basic German to survive outside campus
Whether you're planning to study in Germany for free at a public university, apply for a German student visa, or figure out the blocked account requirement, this guide covers everything you need to know.
