Studying in Germany

How it works

How it Works

Three simple ideas, one clear path.

1

Pick your phase

The guide has four phases — Before Coming to Germany, After Arriving in Germany, Student Life in Germany, and Work and Stay After Graduation. Start where you are today.

2

Follow the steps in order

Every phase is split into short steps in the order that matches real requirements in Germany. Each step explains why it matters, what to do, and the common mistakes. Skip steps you have already finished.

3

Use official sources and optional partners

We link to official sources first. Where an external service helps, we add a clearly marked partner link, which is always optional.

What this guide is and is not

Practical orientation, not legal advice

What it is

Practical guidance and orientation for international students. Clear steps in the right order, with references to official sources and optional partner services.

What it is not

It is not legal, visa or tax advice. Final decisions are always made by universities, embassies and authorities — so confirm with the responsible office before you act.

I found the apartment through studyingermany.info and I was a bit nervous at first as an international student. But everything was 100% real and genuine. The landlord is very supportive, fair, and always reachable. I can really recommend this to any new international student coming to Germany. It is not a scam, it is a trustworthy and safe place to stay.
