Hi i live in india,i would like to do MS in germany can i get scholarship for germany because of high expenses, i am a good student with good marks in every exams. I would like to study so where can i get the scholarships
Hi there! Depending on the master's program you choose and the university you want to study at, fees vary - some are even free. Some schools offer scholarships for international students, or for students of certain subjects, or for those with excellent grades. Details of any scholarships will be available on the website of each university. To discover some of the best universities in your subject go here - https://www.topuniversities.com/subject-rankings - choose a subject and then set the location to Germany. You can then visit the website of any university you're interested in and look at the resources for international students (here you'll find tuition fee information, scholarship info and more). Before applying for scholarship however, it's likely that you'll need to be accepted onto a program in order to be eligible for funding.
Hi Adetola, hopefully my previous answer can help you out with a couple of things - most importantly, your brother needs to be accepted onto a program at a German university before applying for scholarship. (To apply to a program, you'll need to go to the website of your brother's chosen university, visit the international students site section, make sure you meet the program's entry requirement, and download an application form or email the admissions department with any queries). For a look at the top universities in Germany for Law, visit this page - https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/university-subject-rankings/2014/law-legal-studies#sorting=rank+region=+country=162+faculty=+stars=false+search=
Alternatively, take a look at the DAAD website for more info - https://www.daad.de/deutschland/nach-deutschland/en/
I hope this helps your brother with his search for a program!
I am From India. I got 216 marks in GRE. Studying is US would be expensive for me. Could you please suggest where i should apply. I got to know that Germany would be a good option for me, and there are even colleges with no tution fee. If anyone can tell me about colleges in Germany would be great , and yup also also how i could get scholarship there. Please help me.
Hi Govind, yes studying in the US is one of the most expensive places in the world to study, but there are more affordable universities that you may be interested in (you'll have to conduct your own online search for these however). Study in Germany however is likely to be much cheaper as all undergraduate programs for international students are now free of charge, as well a some postgraduate programs. For a look at the top universities in Germany go here - https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/world-university-rankings/2014#sorting=rank+region=+country=162+faculty=+stars=false+search= - or find a top German university within your subject (click subject > specify 'Germany' as location) - https://www.topuniversities.com/subject-rankings .

Hi Simba!

In terms of fees, if you are an undergraduate and want to study in Germany, tuition is free!

First, thank you for the very interesting article.
I am interested to apply for PhD programs in Germany and other universities in developed countries in order to increase admission chances. However, managing applications to a different programs and universities is quit hard. Hence, I am looking for a service provided by an agent to look after my applications. Could you suggest and advice please?
Hi Miloud, I'm afraid I don't know of any services like this but I recommend that you search online for a recognised service - or alternatively, ask a school you're interested in if they know of any services like this. If interested in studying in the UK however, UCAS allows you to apply to all universities of interest directly through them. Laura
hi, im from tokyo and im currently working to study abroad in germany. i finished undergraduate program last year and i have credits that i can transfer for american uni but its too expensive and my parents and the japanese bank cant support me financies. i want to complete bachelor in humanities or communication if i can go to german university. i know that i cant enroll without higher educate certificate and i dont know if i have that but i want to finish bachelor. please help me.
Hi Erisa, most undergraduate programs in Germany require you to have gained either a high-school diploma, school-leaving certificate or university entrance exam result, but a completed degree qualification isn't a necessity. To find exact entry requirements you should first find a selction of universities you wish to study at. The top universities in Germany for media and communications can be found here. From there you can visit the schools' websites to find the entry requirements. You can also contact the school directly if you have any queries. Good luck! Laura
Hello!
i come from Cyprus and i have a diploma in surveying engineering from Greece.
i want to study Psychology in Germany and i was wondering if i am allowed to have a Scholarship and if there are scholarships for a second degree.
thanks in advance!
Hello Nikolas! Scholarships are available for master's level students wanting to study in Germany but can sometimes be hard to find. My advice would be to research a few German universities - the top universities in Germany for Psychology can be found here - to see the sorts of funding they offer for international students. Often before applying for the scholarship you need to gain admittance to the university. For a broader range of scholarships take a look at this article, or visit the DAAD site for further info. We also have a Study in germany FAQ that might be useful. I hope this helps! Laura
Hi!
I am 21 years old, I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina and I am finishing my university here..(Finishing 3rd out of 4 year)
I'd love to find another University after this one in Germany ( for Physical Therapist)
Now, since my country isn't in E.U it seems hard for me to go there.
Is it possible for me to go there, do I have good chances?
Hi Emir, studying in Germany as an international student is a very common option. If you have proficiency in German you're more likely to find a public university that offers an undergraduate program for you, but if not, English-language programs are very limited at undergraduate level and more common at graduate (master's/PhD) level. We have a Study in Germany FAQ which might be useful if you have anymore queries. We'll also be publishing an article on English-language programs in Germany very shortly. Good luck! Laura

Hi there! Depending on the
Hi there! Depending on the master's program you choose and the university you want to study at, fees vary - some are even free. Some schools offer scholarships for international students, or for students of certain subjects, or for those with excellent grades. Details of any scholarships will be available on the website of each university. To discover some of the best universities in your subject go here - https://www.topuniversities.com/subject-rankings - choose a subject and then set the location to Germany. You can then visit the website of any university you're interested in and look at the resources for international students (here you'll find tuition fee information, scholarship info and more). Before applying for scholarship however, it's likely that you'll need to be accepted onto a program in order to be eligible for funding.
Hope this helps,
Laura

Hi Adetola, hopefully my
Hi Adetola, hopefully my previous answer can help you out with a couple of things - most importantly, your brother needs to be accepted onto a program at a German university before applying for scholarship. (To apply to a program, you'll need to go to the website of your brother's chosen university, visit the international students site section, make sure you meet the program's entry requirement, and download an application form or email the admissions department with any queries). For a look at the top universities in Germany for Law, visit this page - https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/university-subject-rankings/2014/law-legal-studies#sorting=rank+region=+country=162+faculty=+stars=false+search=
Alternatively, take a look at the DAAD website for more info - https://www.daad.de/deutschland/nach-deutschland/en/
I hope this helps your brother with his search for a program!

Hi Govind, yes studying in
Hi Govind, yes studying in the US is one of the most expensive places in the world to study, but there are more affordable universities that you may be interested in (you'll have to conduct your own online search for these however). Study in Germany however is likely to be much cheaper as all undergraduate programs for international students are now free of charge, as well a some postgraduate programs. For a look at the top universities in Germany go here - https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/world-university-rankings/2014#sorting=rank+region=+country=162+faculty=+stars=false+search= - or find a top German university within your subject (click subject > specify 'Germany' as location) - https://www.topuniversities.com/subject-rankings .

Hello!
Hello!
I'm from Russia. That academic year is my last in the Moscow State University, and I will get a bachelor's degree in the field 'Russian as a Foreign Language'. I would like to secure a place for further studying (master's) in the sphere of Linguistics, Media or Journalism in Germany or in the USA. Is it possible to win a scholarship the sum of which will cover the cost of the whole course? I have very good marks, scientific works and teaching experience.
Yours faithfully,

Hi Miloud, I'm afraid I don't know of any services like this but I recommend that you search online for a recognised service - or alternatively, ask a school you're interested in if they know of any services like this. If interested in studying in the UK however, UCAS allows you to apply to all universities of interest directly through them. Laura

Hi Erisa, most undergraduate
Hi Erisa, most undergraduate programs in Germany require you to have gained either a high-school diploma, school-leaving certificate or university entrance exam result, but a completed degree qualification isn't a necessity. To find exact entry requirements you should first find a selction of universities you wish to study at. The top universities in Germany for media and communications can be found here. From there you can visit the schools' websites to find the entry requirements. You can also contact the school directly if you have any queries. Good luck! Laura

Hello Nikolas! Scholarships
Hello Nikolas! Scholarships are available for master's level students wanting to study in Germany but can sometimes be hard to find. My advice would be to research a few German universities - the top universities in Germany for Psychology can be found here - to see the sorts of funding they offer for international students. Often before applying for the scholarship you need to gain admittance to the university. For a broader range of scholarships take a look at this article, or visit the DAAD site for further info. We also have a Study in germany FAQ that might be useful. I hope this helps! Laura

Hi!
Hi!
I am 21 years old, I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina and I am finishing my university here..(Finishing 3rd out of 4 year)
I'd love to find another University after this one in Germany ( for Physical Therapist)
Now, since my country isn't in E.U it seems hard for me to go there.
Is it possible for me to go there, do I have good chances?
In reply to Hi! by Emir147

Hi Emir, studying in Germany
Hi Emir, studying in Germany as an international student is a very common option. If you have proficiency in German you're more likely to find a public university that offers an undergraduate program for you, but if not, English-language programs are very limited at undergraduate level and more common at graduate (master's/PhD) level. We have a Study in Germany FAQ which might be useful if you have anymore queries. We'll also be publishing an article on English-language programs in Germany very shortly. Good luck! Laura
