0:05
procedure of the technical university of
0:07
Munich which is the top ranking
0:09

0:12
note uh beforehand is that the
0:14
university application is completely
0:16
free but um to be able to apply to this
0:19
university a lot of people like a lot of
0:20
international students will need
0:22
something called a VPD a preliminary
0:25
document basically you have to go and do
0:28
another application procedure through
0:30
something called a platform called Uni
0:31

that like a week ago so you can go and
0:36
check that out and see like what do you
0:38

0:40
basically it costs about $75 for
0:43
applying to Germany University uh but
0:45
the this application procedure is
0:46
completely free so keep that in mind and
0:49
let's start now you can start by just
0:52
googling the name of this university or
0:54
you can do what I do and go to
0:55
globalcolarships.com which is our
0:57
website our platform we have a lot of
0:59
informative stuff here you can find uh
1:01
like scholarships here guides blah blah

of Munich and then this is the page we
1:13
have for this specific university it's
1:15
in Munich about 50,000 students uh just
1:18
three scholarships and like just one
1:21
student assistantship which is a partial
1:24
funding scholarship for both uh
1:26
bachelors and masters and then as
1:28
external we have DAD scholarships
1:30
germany universities usually do not
1:32
offer a lot of scholarships because the
1:34
education is free like there's no
1:36
tuition fee uh you only have to pay like
1:39
a 300 or 400 semester fee so that's it
1:43
uh which is why they usually don't also
1:45
give you a lot of scholarships as well
1:47
anyway you can get information about the
1:50
deadlines here as you can see uh we'll
1:53
