Today more and more of our compatriots decide to change their place of residence. Someone wants to go to America to start their own business, while others prefer China with its dynamically developing economy. Those who are not supporters of radical changes in their own lives are best to choose one of the European countries. A stable economy, numerous social programs, a high standard of living – these are just the main advantages of living and working abroad.
Germany is deservedly popular among our compatriots. Some go there after marrying a German, while others find a very profitable job offer. Among those leaving are many students and applicants dreaming of obtaining a diploma from one of the German universities. They are not intimidated by the lengthy processing of a foreign passport; they are ready to work and study simultaneously in order to eventually become the holder of a prestigious diploma that opens wide opportunities for career growth.
However, not everyone can get the opportunity to go to Germany to study there and stay forever. It is desirable to have initial higher education at one of the domestic universities. If you want to go to study after the first year, you must complete special preparatory courses in order to be enrolled as a student. The preparation time for documents is quite long and discourages many who wish to study in Germany – paperwork can take up to six months.
To study at a German university, you need to obtain a visa for a period of two years. Upon expiration, it can be extended for a period depending on how many years you still have to study. If you plan to work while studying, remember that with half-day employment you can work 180 days a year. Once you receive your diploma, your visa can be extended for a year so that you can find a high-paying and interesting job for yourself.
To clarify the conditions for admission to a university and emigration to Germany, you should consult a lawyer who will answer all questions regarding the rules of departure. You can also find out the nuances of admission to the university by finding its coordinates and sending a corresponding request.
