Yes, we welcome everyone! We ask our students to be based in Berlin, as our studies are fully onsite.

[@42berlin]

Our campus is kids friendly and we have a lot of mother-students. We also don't need any visa

[@nyzepanda4577]

Hey thanks for the video, I have a questionn, how big is the 42 Berlin campus compared to the 42 Paris one ?

[@42berlin]

Hey, thanks for your question! At the moment, 42 Berlin has around 236 computers, whereas 42 Paris has around 750 but is soon expanding to have many more. Both campuses are continuously evolving and expanding, however Berlin is currently smaller in capacity. Hope this helps!

[@nirmalababu6557]

is student visa provided to join 42 Berlin coding school for non EU students

[@42berlin]

Hey, no we cannot guarantee that we can secure you a visa but we can definitely try to help as much as we can

[@ataimebenson]

This is the same question I have. Do you have students that came from Africa studying in 42 Berlin ?

[@zeland991]

Is it possible for someone who has a full time job? I’m very interested but not sure if the piscine will need a whole month to finish

[@42berlin]

We don't recommend doing the Piscine alongside a fulltime job, we encourage applicants to approach it as a full-time commitment otherwise it might be too overwhelming. Hope this helps :)

[@kaisen_amv7305]

is there a possibility to change campuses for students coming from other countries specifically none EU countries if yes what are the conditions

[@42berlin]

Hey hey, you can change campus to any other 42 school after you complete the core curriculum. As you must be in the same campus for the Piscine and common core. If you have more questions about this please reach out via [e-mail] :)

[@geildesignt]

Hi there, is it possible to do it in HomeOffice too? I'm not living in Berlin right now.

[@42berlin]

Studies are 100% on site in Neukölln, as peer-learning is much more effective when students are physically together

[@oleksandrmaksymikhin]

What is the education/communication language in 42 Berlin (English/German)?

[@42berlin]

It's English :)

[@Envision_]

@@42berlin of course it is. Why should you bother with German, right? In the German capital, of all places

[@johnwa7585]

[@CartoonLandAdventures12]

Hey, we run our programme 100% onsite, to ensure the effectiveness of our peer-learning methods!

[@elRafeek]
