U.L.M.: Underestimated but Learned and Multidisciplinary
Tips: You can be yourself at this university. Although having some German language knowledge is always beneficial and recommended. There are few cultural deviations, but nothing major to hinder your growth. I didn't apply for any scholarships, but there are some available. I am very satisfied with the course I chose; it broadens the horizons for both psychology and computer science students.
Likes (Safety): The entire university is safe and can be opened only with a student card. Police can be called and will arrive within 5 minutes if need be. A person can be out at any time of the day; it has happened with me, and I felt completely safe. The same is the case with an ambulance.
Dislikes (Part time work): Look, the coursework at Ulm University is a massive full-time commitment, period. If you try to pick up some random, out-of-field part-time job just to make extra cash, you’re honestly going to waste your time and end up dragging out your graduation date forever. Surviving your modules here while working on the side is incredibly brutal anyway. That’s honestly the whole point of how the German system is set up—you don't have to shell out a fortune on tuition fees like you would in the US, UK, Australia, or Canada. Because you aren't drowning in massive tuition debt, the expectation is that you can actually survive without working twenty hours a week, allowing you to completely lock in and focus on your studies instead of burning out.

Rigorous, rewarding and worth the Adjustment!
Tips: The shift is real—more structured, less spontaneous. Independence is built fast out of necessity. It's challenging initially but rewarding in the long run. Applied through DAAD & university portals. Would recommend to anyone serious about their field.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Professors are genuinely helpful and accessible—office hours are real, not ceremonial. Research-led teaching means you engage with current problems, not just textbooks. Industrial visits and lab training are part of the course. Faculty is mostly German.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Indian options exist but are limited in price. Most cooking happens at home—groceries are affordable and manageable. Eating out is occasional, more of a social thing. A few Indian/Asian restaurants are nearby; meals range from 15 to 120 euros. Turkish-done shops are cheaper, around 8 euros.

Good university for research but the job prospects are average.
Tips: The examination system is rigid, and passing the exam could be tough without sufficient preparations. Staying focused in the study is a necessity. One might struggle to find a job depending on the economic situation at that time. There are job fairs at the uni, but not like on-campus recruitment in India. Part-time jobs are available but not guaranteed for everyone.
Likes (Safety): Town is pretty safe for all practical purposes. It is in the southern part of Germany bordering Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria, which are considered the safest regions in Germany. Recently some theft cases and drug-related cases are rising, but nothing to worry about as of now. The police are very responsive and fast.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Eating outside - 2 or 3 Indian restaurants; for a student, the pricing is expensive. If one cooks at home, it's cheap and very cheap if cooked in a group. However, Indian cooking could consume a lot of time and hamper studies. One should have to adjust to the German food. Also, the options for vegetarian foods are limited.

Professional and helpful.
Tips: The university welcomes every international student with open arms. They conduct a lot of initial events to make us comfortable. The academic staff is well-experienced and know how to work with international students. Adjoining the university is a science park that hosts a lot of companies, where one can find student jobs.

Great study fun balance, long term friendships and life changing experiences.
Tips: Studies would not be easy but the faculty is very helpful and the resources are good. If you put in consistent work and actually engage with your peers, it gets much easier. There are enough international students to mingle with however, Germans are also very kind and, contrary to popular belief, quite friendly. You can get scholarships if you have good grades. Very satisfied with the experiences.
Likes (Student Life): Despite being a small city, there were many cultural events, festivals, etc. The time tables are not heavy so you get time to work on your studies, reports, and projects during the day itself. The course structure was very well organised and more emphasis was placed on projects that brought flexibility as well as accountability for the work one did. As for the city, summer is amazing. Student dorms are very well equipped and there are many city-wide discounts for students.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs are limited. In the city, language can be a barrier and it is a small city, so fewer options. There are more waitressing, restaurant, and such jobs than your course-related ones. The payout, though, is not bad and can help you manage expenses.

Affordable, rigorous and career defining.
Tips: Students should know that a transition period is required to adapt to the German way of life. As an Indian I had to adjust to a culture that is strictly punctual and efficiency-based. I applied to Ulm University independently and secured a tuition scholarship. This has been a life-changing decision; I am deeply satisfied with the course and the opportunities available here for genuine students.
Likes (Value for money): I secured a full tuition scholarship. The curriculum is strict and industry oriented and strong post-study job placement. Dormitory and food costs are manageable and affordable. The value for money is outstanding.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships here are voluntary rather than mandatory which gives flexibility. If you are willing to put in the effort to apply by yourself, the opportunities are accessible. It is a good environment for self-starters who want experience.

Hi, For undergraduate programs, you will need German language proficiency but check the language of instruction on university websites. At least A2 level is required for most UG programs. You can also check this if it helps for your German language training: https://www.goethe.de/ins/in/en/spr/ku
