Detailed explanation of the application time for studying in Germany:
In August this year
Preparation in advance: German training courses will be started at the end of August, and by May of the following year, * * * will have accumulated 800 hours of German learning certificates. What needs to be explained here is that there is still enough time for students who apply directly to the university and do not take part in the postgraduate entrance examination. Of course, if they can make full use of their holiday time to study in advance, 800 hours is still very easy.
September this year

Preparation for the exam and DSH exam: The waiting time for the exam is usually 4 weeks, but many people will take the exam in 2 weeks, so you should consciously find some German words related to your major in elementary and intermediate learning, or simply prepare English. The audit materials shall be submitted during the holidays when the primary school is finished and the primary school is finished (due to the problem of proof of class hours, individuals can choose by themselves). I suggest that you review as soon as you graduate from primary school, or at the intermediate stage, at least at the intermediate stage, because the results of the review will not come out immediately, so you can calmly choose whether to report to school or take the DSH advanced exam.

Audit interview: after receiving the remittance and materials from the applicant, the audit department first reviews the written materials. After the written materials are qualified, an interview notice will be sent to the applicant (currently it takes 1-2 months). Interview is to examine the university courses and professional knowledge learned by the applicant through a question-and-answer conversation. The interview time is about 20 minutes, and there is 15 minutes of preparation before. The audit certificate will be issued about two weeks after the interview (the validity of the audit certificate is now two years). If the first audit fails, it is allowed to apply for a second audit after three months, and can apply for a maximum of three audits. The APS exam is actually not that difficult. As long as the university really studies, it will not pass. Whether English or German, of course, there are some skills ... After all, this is not a specialized academic research institution, just an inspection. Pay attention to the main audit, talk as much as possible, cheer yourself up and intuitively show that you are good at it.

Start application: send all materials (including notarized materials, 800-hour German certificate, resume and recommendation letter) immediately (preferably one week before April 15). In order to get the notice as soon as possible, you can apply for an unlimited major that is consistent with or similar to your related major. DAAD's explanation of restricted majors: some "hot" majors have limited study places due to too many applicants, while federal or state universities implement "quota restriction" (Zulassungsbecheraenkungen: Numerus Claus, NC). Generally speaking, the "hot" majors related to international students are: medicine, pharmacy, biology (including biochemistry, biotechnology, etc. ), psychology, informatics, architecture, national economics. Enterprise management and so on. Therefore, when applying for these majors, you should consult the foreign affairs office of the school in advance. Get the admission notice.
May of the following year
Exchange money to open an account: take a copy of the notice to the foreign exchange bureau to exchange money. You can open an account with Deutsche Bank (ITC), and the handling fee is about 760 euros. Note: You can translate the notice yourself and stamp it in the translation company. Never translate the words "language class" and "preparatory department". Then export at one time. If you have the ability to get the euro "remittance account", don't take out the cash and remit it directly to the German account, which can save a lot of money. Because when the bank remits money, if you remit cash, it will charge you the money needed to convert your cash into "cash".

Booking air tickets: if it is notified by a regular university, the visa will usually come down in 35 to 50 days, and will arrive ten days before the start of school at the latest. Just book air tickets 1 month in advance. If you are a student in the winter semester, that is, September 10, you should book your air tickets two months in advance, or longer.

There are no student tickets for booking air tickets in August. You can book air tickets for three dates in advance, preferably one week apart.
