1:39
There are no they not that many other scholarships as well As you can see we have like the admission process here We have deadlines here And as I can see no tuition fees So let see the university actually right It imports them in Germany
2:01
This one. Okay, so this is the university, basically. If you want to study in Germany, a lot of schools in Germany offer really good education
2:13
education. One thing to keep in mind that you don't pay tuition fees, you pay a very
2:20
affordable semester fee. Let me just share the link or I forget. But one thing about Germany
2:29
is that Germany is kind of can be quite more expensive compared to other countries. So you
2:36
need to get a, like have a plan for your cost of living, which we'll see actually in a second
2:43
right? Anyway, this is the university. Now, there are that many things to say about this scholarship
2:51
It's just basically you don't pay tuition fees, but the university has, I kind of find that a lot of German universities
2:59
has like their pages about free tuition. Like normally there shouldn't be that much of an information
3:09
but they also give you quite a lot of information about like how much it costs
3:13
to study. As you can see, we don't charge any tuition fees. But then they give you
3:20
information about average cost of living and a lot of universities also give you information about
3:26
other possible ways of financing your education For example we have average monthly expenditures As you can see here like rent and food clothing and et cetera it like kind of adds up to 930 euros
3:45
It's per month, by the way. And like there's even more information about like possible additional expenses
3:52
And so overall it says it can vary between 600 and 1100 euros
3:59
So like you would just need to pay this. every month for your own expenses
4:06
and you would also pay every semester a fee of about 300 euros and then if you go to the universities page
4:13
they also as you can see gives they also give you more information about financing and working like German financial aid
4:21
you can look into these scholarships housing allowance social services student loans part-time jobs
4:28
like German universities really do give you a lot of information about, like, not just the scholarship, but also, like, other opportunities to finance your education
4:42
Anyway, so that's pretty much it. This is the free tuition at University of Ponsdam
4:48
Eamon, do you want to add anything about this one? Yeah, so for most public universities in Germany, the education is free
5:00
so whether you're a domestic or an international student, you just have to pay your semester contribution
5:09
and that's the extent of it. There are no tuition fees. One misconception that I would probably want to clear out
5:18
because I met with an admission officer from a German university and they told me that you don really have to study in German for you to be able
5:31
to study for free. You can study in English as well, provided that the university offers
5:36
English taught courses. So, I think students should be aware of that
5:45
There's this big misconception about Germany that if you want to study in Germany
5:51
you have to study in German and people are scared that they can't learn the language
5:56
They find it a little bit hard, complicated. So the option to study in English is there
6:06
Just try to look for universities that offer English thought courses and you are good to go
6:13
So free education is not only for German talk courses, which is not the case for
6:21
some universities, for example, in Eastern Europe or maybe in Asia as well
6:30
For those, sometimes the courses that are taught in the language of the country are free
6:38
but if you apply for the English taught courses, you actually have to pay for tuition fees
6:45
That does not apply to Germany. and I think this is just the one thing I would like to point out
6:53
okay thank you very much that's a very good point I can see a lot of people
6:59
could how a lot of people could think yeah I don't know German
7:04
I cannot study in German Germany so I wouldn't like I shouldn't even try to
7:11
yeah that's a very good point thank you very much
