Getting higher education is becoming expensive every year. Whether it is from India or from abroad, students have to pay huge fees in both cases. Studying in India is still somewhat cheap, but after taking admission abroad, one has to spend millions of rupees every month. Not only this, in countries like America, Britain and Canada, this fee ranges from 20 to 30 lakh rupees annually. Under these circumstances, Indian students want to study in a country where they do not have to pay any fees. The good thing is that there is a country in the world where you can study for free. Let us know about it in detail.
In which country is studying for free?
Germany is one of the few countries in the world where free education is provided. The best thing is that the German government not only gives the benefits of free education to the students of the country, but foreign students can also study here without giving any tuition fees. However, free education facility is available only in government universities. To study here, foreign students have to receive a residence permit first, and after that they have to stay in Germany and complete their studies.
Which universities can you study for free?
There are about 400 public universities in Germany and over 2000 courses are taught here in total. Thus students have many options to take admission. Following are some top government universities of Germany:
Ludwig maximilian university
Monich technical university
University of Heidelberg
Humbolt university
University of Freburg
University of Tubingon
RWTH Achen University
Colon university
Munter University
Hamburg University
Why is tuition fees not charged in government universities?
People in Germany believe that education should not be seen as a business product. Providing free education ensures economic development and welfare. Germany has also passed a law, under which public universities have been allowed to charge very minor tuition fees of 1,000 euros per year. But then after the protest, the tuition fee was again abolished in 2014. In this way, the way for free studies in Germany was cleared.
How much does it cost to study in Germany?
Although tuition fees are not charged in government universities in Germany, the student has to bear the expenses of living and eating here. To study in Germany, foreign students must first open a block account, in which they have to submit 11,904 euros. The government wants to keep this money with the students so that they can afford their education and living. Generally, the annual cost of living and eating in Germany is about 1000 euros.
Can you live in Germany after studying?
The answer to this question is yes. Foreign students are allowed to live in Germany after obtaining their degrees. Here students get an 18 -month residence permit, which allows them to live in Germany and find jobs. This is a type of ‘job seeking visa’.
