Let's try it again. Hi there, Mr.
0:02
Ram. I'm not sure why this happened. I
0:06
think I my computer is having a RAM
0:11
issues. Okay, we are once again live.
0:17
Great. Um, yeah, I was talking about I
0:20
think just before the stream went
0:23
down. Hang on. Is it
0:25
working? Yeah. Okay. I was talking about
0:31
the the blog blog accounts. So if you
0:34
want to study in Germany,
0:36
uh one thing that you have to know about
0:38
Germany, German government, German
0:40
universities is that they they're very
0:42
meticulous about finances. They want to
0:45
give you uh the like a lot of
0:47
information and make sure that you don't
0:50
you won't have financial difficulties
0:52
when you go there. Uh which is why they
0:55
have something called a blocked account.
0:57
Basically government says okay if you
0:59
want to study in this country you'll
1:01
have about
1:03
€12,000 per year. So before being able
1:07
to go there you'll have to put about
1:09
€12,000 in an account that will be
1:12
blocked. You don't pay that to
1:14
government. You don't pay to Germany.
1:16
It's your money. It's just that uh it
1:19
will be in a blocked account that you
1:21
cannot just uh get it all at once. You
1:24
can get it just like every month like a
1:27
part of that money. So the government
1:29
just wants to make sure that you have
1:30
enough funds and you won't have any
1:32
financial issues. So that's the blocked
1:34
account. Uh that's something that a lot
1:37
of people can have issue with. Uh it's
1:41
it's not easy to gather that money at
1:43
once. So yeah, hub uh I saw your
1:46
question. uh before our scholar uh uh
1:48
our live stream went down. I'm going to
1:50
get back to that. So yeah, these school
1:54
these universities are tuition free. Uh
1:56
I also made a tutorial for University of
1:58
Bremen. Uh again, they're tuition free.
2:02
You only have to pay about €300 every
2:05
semester. So it's it's like uh €5060 per
2:09
month. Um they also are free to apply.
2:13
They don't charge any application fees.
2:15
But if you're from uh like not from if
2:18
you don't have um if you if you didn't
2:21
graduate from like a German high school
2:23
or something like that, you have to go
2:25
through a platform called Unicist. For
2:28
that, you have to pay about
2:30
€75. Uh we I made a lot of tutorials
2:33
about that one. You can check out our uh
2:36
YouTube channel if you're interested in.
2:38
So yeah, that's pretty much it. Um they
2:42
just don't charge you any tuition fees.
2:44
the uh education is free. Um so this is
2:49
hang
2:50
on right now there are
2:55
about let's say 28 universities that are
2:59
open for application that do not charge
3:02
any tuition fees in Germany. So if
3:04
you're interested you can let me share
3:06
the link with you. Uh you can check out
3:08
all of
3:10
these. Uh I know a lot of you are
3:12
interested in studying in Germany
3:15
and they have like a lot of these
3:17
universities by the way are very high
3:20
like offer very high quality education
3:23
and yeah that's pretty much it. This is
3:25
like how you get free universities free
3:27
education in Germany. Um Aean do you
3:30
want to add anything about this subject
3:33
in general perhaps?
3:36
Oh yeah, I think you've covered it
3:39
really well, but I can recap most of it.
3:43
Um, so to study in Germany, uh,
3:48
universities generally don't, uh, charge
3:51
any tuition fees. There are semester
3:54
contributions that, uh, most students
3:57
need to pay. Those are
4:00
generally capped at €200 to€300
4:05
um per semester which is not really that
4:08
much it if you compare it to any other
4:11
country. Uh yeah but it's still tuition
4:15
free. Um scholarships uh or fully funded
4:19
scholarships are generally
4:22
not that available. you of course you
4:25
have the DA scholarships but I think
4:29
that's the extent of it. Um you would
4:32
need as you said around
4:35
11,900 in a blocked account that you
4:37
would get uh a monthly stipen from. Uh
4:44
but I think uh it's still pretty good if
4:48
you like we we saw earlier in the UK
4:51
where tuition fees alone are
4:54
$20,000 which is around probably
4:58
€23,000. So it is still pretty good um
5:04
uh just uh if you judge the quality of
5:07
education. Uh one thing that people just
5:10
or I would say is a misconception
5:13
uh is that tuition fees uh or tuition
5:17
fee tuition free education does not
5:20
apply to English courses. It definitely
5:22
does. So if you want to study in
5:25
Germany, you don't have to study in
5:26
German.
5:29
um you you can just uh study in English
5:34
if if you have uh a standardized exam.
