European education

Breaking stereotypes, or why studying in Europe is cheaper than you think

Do you still consider studying in Europe a pleasure for the rich?

Now you might be surprised. There is a country where you can get a higher education without paying for it at all pennies a cent. This is Germany. University studies here are also free for foreigners.

It is not always necessary to know German. Almost every university has master's programs entirely in English. In some places you can also study for a bachelor's degree in English, but there is a huge competition.

Of course, costs can't be avoided either way:

  1. Semester fee of 100 - 300 euros per semester.

    All students pay it, but it is a conditional expense. The student card gives so many benefits and preferences that many people in Germany apply to university without intending to study there. Just for the sake of having a student card.
  2. Prove that you have money for the first year of living in Germany at the rate of 860€ per month (860*12=10.320€ per year).

    Yes, the money is big, but once you become a student you are entitled to work. A foreign student in Germany can work up to 20 hours a week. The salary for such a schedule is just about 900 euros a month.

    Now you know enough to realize that studying in Germany is no more expensive than in Russia. But the authority of this education is recognized all over the world.
