Studying in Germany

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing great.

I'm Ahmed, 24, from Erbil, Kurdistan, Iraq, and I'm planning to study in Germany. After doing my research, here's what I’ve learned about the process:

1️⃣ Complete High School – Have a recognized high school diploma. 2️⃣ Blocked Account – Deposit at least €11,200 for living expenses. 3️⃣ University Application – Apply to a university (€75 per application fee). 4️⃣ Student Visa – If accepted, apply for a German student visa at the nearest embassy (~$100 fee). 5️⃣ Before Flying – Arrange accommodation, health insurance (~€150/month for public insurance), and register at the Federal Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) after arrival.

I’d really appreciate any advice from those who have been through this process! Let me know if I’m missing anything or if you have any tips to guide me.

Thanks to the admins for approving my post!
