I'd experienced in high standard level education in Germany, which the primary concerns of the government is the important of education and highly supported in people education. Government has been organized and provided education institutes adequately throughout the country. If you choose to go for state university, you're not required to pay any tuition fees from primary school to the university level at all, even though you are an oversea student who seeking such a challenging experience, that's fair enough to get exempted from educational expenses!

The education system can be generally divided in 2 levels. Firstly is mandatory for all people which is preschool to grade 10: in this level, most people choose to study at near by-school. All student included oversea students is exempted for tuition fee. They should be only aware of their personal expenses. Some of students choose to study in their learning skill specialist after grade 10, which is taking about 2-3 years. Some of them might go to university level after they complete grade 13. In the university, instruction is commonly given German and English for foreign student. There are varieties of subjects to choose such as Humanities, Sciences, etc. If you are enrolled in any state university, you will be absolutely exempted for tuition fee.

In postgraduate level, tuition is ranging from 1,200- 1,500 DM per month. In every year, the government will have the scholarships for research student and anyone who interested by DAAD, which is very fascinating for all oversea students. This is because it covers all personal expenses and living allowance throughout study period. Scholarships candidate who has met their criteria will be carefully selected.
