1, the conditions of high school, the qualifications of students who apply for the exam need to graduate from junior high school until graduation from high school. In fact, all students have to apply in the third grade, so they can go abroad directly after graduation.
2. But for middle schools, students still go to this high school in Germany, and only after they get German diplomas and grades will they consider applying for universities. Although it takes a long time, it is safer. According to a regulation in Germany, students can only apply for a comprehensive university here if they have obtained the Abitur diploma. If students want to study in an applied university, it depends on the state, because some need Abitur diploma and some don't.
In addition, there are two types of international students to choose from, one is a boarding school and the other is an international school. If it is a regular school in Germany, there are few international students, because there will not be too many international students. In fact, their international schools in Germany are still exploring. Moreover, in this number, each region will have a related control, that is, each school only recruits a certain number of international students. When choosing a school, it depends on whether the school has been certified by Germany, because some middle schools here are not granted the right to take exams, and students studying here cannot go to public universities.
German high school application process
1. Submit the application materials and determine the voluntary schools.
Because the number of places in German high schools is very limited, and the number of places in good schools is even less, parents and students are advised to prepare materials as soon as possible and strive for the number of places in intentional middle schools in advance.
2. Get pre-admission to high school.
If you are a student now, you will get a pre-admission to high school around June, then go through the visa formalities and wait for Germany. Applying for a high school visa requires a face-to-face visa. Students are underage and need to be accompanied by their parents.
3. Enter a language school.
After receiving the signing notice, I can go to a language school in Germany in September. The German Ministry of Education stipulates that foreign students must study language courses for one year before entering German high schools. After the language course, they will enter the next stage of study after their language level reaches B2. Therefore, before applying, it is suggested that students' language level can reach A2, so as to ensure smooth entry into the next stage of study. Of course, if students' language proficiency has reached B2+ level in China and they have a certificate, they can apply to the school, and the school will interview the students before entering the school. After passing, they can not read or read less language.
Application requirements for studying in Germany at different stages
First, the requirements of high school learning
Students who have finished the second grade of junior high school in China can start preparing for further study, but the formal application can only be submitted after graduation, and they must also show their GPA transcripts, with a score of about 3.0 and a qualified diploma.
There is no mandatory requirement for language, but I suggest that you receive German training in China to ensure that you can keep up with the learning progress. The annual study fee is about 1.8 million yuan. If there is no deposit requirement, you can go directly to Germany, accompanied by your parents.
Second, the preparatory study requirements
High school graduates can't directly apply for undergraduate study, but they can only enter the preparatory course to receive professional transition study, but everyone must meet the same requirements. After completing their studies, they need to show their certificates, and their GPA should reach 3.0 or above.
There will also be certain requirements for language, such as showing proof of 500 hours of German study, and you can be exempted from language classes if you reach Band 4 in the Telford exam; Ordinary schools will also set up entrance exams, and they can only formally enter the school after passing the exam.
Third, undergraduate study abroad requirements
If you want to enter the undergraduate course directly, students must show proof that they have finished one semester in 2 1 1 university, or that they have finished three semesters in double non-school schools. After passing the exam, you can directly enter the relevant stage of study. Of course, the GPA must be above 3.0.
I still have to pass the APS exam to confirm that my Telford exam is above Band 4. At present, German universities are strict in reviewing interdisciplinary applications, so when preparing, everyone needs to confirm that their background meets the requirements.
Fourth, the requirements for studying abroad
Students can also submit applications, as long as they can show proof of professional ability; Generally speaking, you should submit it after completing your undergraduate studies on a part-time basis. Erdford's test scores must be at least level 4, and reaching level 5 will be more competitive.
The admission of doctoral students will pay more attention to students' grades. Everyone can show their ability to work independently and do scientific research. They will be more competitive if there are ready-made results. There is no requirement for academic qualifications, but German must be qualified.
Common ways to study abroad and find a house in Germany
1, apply for student dormitory
Because of its advantages of low cost, good housing conditions, close to the school and communication with peers, student dormitory has become a generally accepted housing form for international students. According to statistics, among about 183000 dormitories provided by the German University Student Service, the proportion of international students living in them exceeds 40%. However, the construction speed of student dormitories is far behind the growth speed of the number of students. In the case of "more than enough porridge", it often takes several months to apply for a student dormitory, and some popular rooms such as suites need to wait longer.
Step 2 book online
In addition to student service institutions, some church institutions or foundations have also built cost-effective residences for students. This kind of residence usually has complete infrastructure, convenient living and transportation, and moderate price. Anyone who meets the requirements can book online. After the reservation is successful, they have three days to consider whether to stay. If they agree, they need to pay a deposit and part of the monthly rent during this period. Like student dormitories, this kind of accommodation is often in short supply and can only be booked when there are vacancies. In addition, similar large-scale student apartments in Berlin include the "Student Village" in Tenghu, Slach, formerly known as "Student Village of Free University of Berlin".
Step 3 rent a private house
Private houses have various rooms at different prices. Looking for private houses can rely on advertisements in local newspapers in the city or on professional websites. The process is to determine the house you want, write an email or call the landlord to introduce yourself, and then make an appointment to see the house. If satisfied, tell the landlord that he wants to move in and wait for the landlord's reply. In addition to being able to pay the rent, the tenant's personality, background and living habits will affect the choice of German landlords. Some German landlords are unwilling to rent their houses to foreigners and students who have no stable income. Students in China should be psychologically prepared.
4. Entrust an intermediary to find a house.
There are many housing rental agencies in Germany. If you are not confident about your language and communication skills, or want to reduce the time for finding a place, entrusting an intermediary is also a way to find a house. Students need to explain their requirements for the house, rental time, basic information and acceptable price range. The agency fee is about one to two months' rent, which means that the higher the house rent, the higher the agency fee needs to be paid. In addition to formal intermediary companies, there are some China people who have lived in Germany for a long time, and their fees are usually lower.
Guide to the selection of study abroad insurance in Germany
I. Insurance system
Since 2009, everyone with permanent residence in the Federal Republic of Germany has the obligation to buy medical insurance. Insurance is essential even for short-term stay, business trip and travel in Germany, otherwise the visa will not be issued. Germany is the first country in the world to legislate to implement the social security system. Under the principle of advocating the establishment of a social welfare state and a social market economy, the scope, items and contents of legal medical insurance services in Germany are very diverse and extensive, and German medical insurance can be called a comprehensive system covering almost all medical services.
For students, including international students, who are low-income groups, the premium they require is very low. Although international students pay less for medical insurance, the medical services enjoyed in German hospitals are exactly the same as those enjoyed by other citizens. It can be said that the public medical insurance we bought in Germany as an international student has enjoyed excellent service.
Second, medical insurance.
Germany has more than 2,300 hospitals with more than 600,000 beds and 1000 prevention and rehabilitation institutions. Among them, hospitals run by public welfare organizations such as the government or churches account for 80-90% of the total number of beds, and the rest are run by private enterprises. The insured (including their families and minors) who participate in statutory insurance can get timely, free or almost free treatment regardless of their financial situation at that time, and generally do not need to pay cash when seeing a doctor. At the same time, patients have the right to freely choose medical practitioners and specialists, and can choose hospitals for hospitalization within a certain range under the guidance of medical practitioners. In Germany, citizens can enjoy legal medical insurance services no matter which medical insurance fund organization they participate in.
Third, pay attention to the main points
1. Because Germany requires that a specified amount of insurance be purchased in advance when applying for a visa, international students can purchase transitional insurance products in China to provide personal safety and medical security for international students at the initial stage of going abroad, and then purchase insurance at the place where they study.
2. For the insurance purchased locally when studying in Germany, parents should first confirm whether the school provides insurance agency services, and give priority to the compulsory or recommended student insurance plan for studying in Germany; Or consult local international students who have already purchased insurance.
3. If you need to buy transitional overseas study insurance products in China first, you should choose overseas study insurance with complete insurance liability, sufficient insurance coverage and excellent brand of insurance company from the actual demand.
4. Medical rescue responsibility should be regarded as the core service content of purchasing insurance products, and attention should be paid to the insured amount and specific service content, including the amount of protection, the scope of protection and the corresponding price, and whether there are more targeted protection items, such as "school interruption insurance".
