[@riceoppa]

Hi, thank you for your informative video as always. I have a question, say if you meet the education certificate requirements to study in Germany and choose a course that's taught in English, what are the chances that they'll ask for an evidence of your German language proficiency? I'm currently applying via uni assist and I'm not familiar with the German language 😅 On this note, would you happen to have any recommendations for trustworthy sites to look for accomodations for international students? Is google maps legal to use in Germany?

[@maxyoko]

Using Google Maps is legal in Germany For apartments I can recommend ImmoScout24, WG Gesucht or HousingAnywhere It depends on the English-taught program, in rare cases, they ask for a German language certificate. But most of the time you won't need one

[@riceoppa]

@@maxyoko Sweet! Thank you so much!

[@dbudiarta]

There is one correction Max: FSP certificate by some studienkolleg from Universities of Applied Sciences do accepted by universities in German nationwide. Students need to read the detail information provided at the website of the studienkolleg for detail.

[@danyilmurzhy6832]

as well false info about applying after only to Hochschule Muss ich dort studieren, wo ich die Feststellungsprüfung abgelegt habe? Nein, mit einer Feststellungsprüfung können Sie sich in ganz Deutschland an allen Universitäten bzw. an allen Fachhochschulen / Hochschulen bewerben. Im Bundesland NRW gibt es Feststellungsprüfungen, die nur in diesem Bundesland gelten.

[@zeno_y]

Thank you for sharing your insight on the Studienkolleg. It was exactly what I needed. I'm curious to know if German Studienkollegs accept applicants with a GED. My agent informed me that they generally do not, but I'm still hopeful and not giving up on the idea. You know, just staying determined.

I was wondering, if you applied to studienkolleg would you still apply to the university? Would the case be to apply to a university first, then have them tell you to do a studienkolleg or apply straight into studienkolleg and submit uni applications once the year is over?

[@Eklarensie]

You need to apply for Studienkolleg. Applying for Studienkolleg does not mean that you're applying to a university. You have to finish Studienkolleg and then apply for a University. It's not an automatic process.

[@demamine1820]

I got accepted in a preparatory program in Saarland (VSI) public and I can only study/ continue my Studies in one of the offered Studiengänge in Uni Saarland as opposed to Studienkolleg where you can actually choose the University. Should I wait for Studienkolleg Heidelberg or Hamburg?

How long would it take to reach from german A1 to german B2? I'm going to take HKDSE(the university entrance exam in my country) in April this year so I plan to start learning German intensively in May. I'm not confident that I'll be able to reach B2 before the winter semester starts.

[@udontnome7850]

If you’re planning to study in Germany and are seeking a student visa, most likely you’ll have to prove B2 before your admissions deadline. Make sure you have checked your desired schools’ and programs’ requirements. A lot of schools and subjects require C level. I took 4 years of German in HS and had a solid base for pronunciation and grammar, but considered myself very amateur. After 3 months of immersion my German advanced one level. While I felt I could speak as much German as maybe a 4 year old, Germans are usually forgiving and very patient with earnest effort. After 3 months of B2 language course I was able to easily pass B1. But, to answer your question it’s not about how much time you can invest. The tests aren’t necessarily hard to pass. If you are confident in your study skills, and are starting at next to nothing, you’ll have to buy German textbooks and teach yourself a complete curriculum. But nothing can replace immersion. If you are planning to study completely in German, I’d recommend a one year language study in Germany. The visa is very easy to apply for and you can even work part time while attending (I think bi weekly) classes. The arrangements are all very flexible and the classes very diverse. It’s a great way to get ur foot in the door and meet new people, if you’ve got the time and money. And there’s much less pressure since it’s only a language course and unrelated to your academics.

You should probably email any university that has Studienkollegs for the STEM courses. I'm guessing the T Kurs (wherever CS major was in) might be for you because UI/UX designer needs to know some programming. I'm guessing that you can go for a CS major and then study a bit of art as electives, but the opposite wouldn't probably work.
