Studying in Germany!?! Good idea! Why?
In Germany there are more than 400 universities and universities of applied science and several thousand subjects to study, so that there will a good choice for each „flavor“, for each talent, for each aim. The universities in Germany are free of fees although they all have high quality and high reputation. This reputation is a door opener for you: in your home country, in the German economy which is still prospering and searching for qualified staff as well as all over the world.

Among such a big number of choices and chances in quite a complex and complicated system of German federal education systems it is not so easy to find the right choice:
Are there only the big and famous universities the right ones? What about my chances to get a place there? Do I fulfill the requirements? What about my German knowledge? What documents do I need?

University Placement Service
How does it work?
What do we offer?
To prevent that you are lost among these questions and
information we do offer our University Placement Service*):
- We check your documents if they are complete.
- We check if you have direct access to German universities or if you need a foundation year („ Studienkolleg").
- We check if your German knowledge is good enough for studying at a German university and we are building your individual pathway. We will consult you about how, when and where you can learn the missing German. We are independent, so we will consult you about learning in you home country, in a German language school (we can recommend high quality schools to you) or at a university, etc.
- We contact the chosen universities to clarify details for you, if necessary.
- We prepare up to 3 university applications for you, we take care that these are correct, complete and punctual at the universities.
*) Please note: We can not guarantee places at certain cities or certain universities. We also can not do placements for PhD programs.
