A close-knit campus with global and creative opportunities.
Tips: The transition to Germany was both exciting and challenging. I experienced a cultural shift mainly in independent and punctual life here, and also in the direct way people communicate, which I've grown to appreciate. I haven't applied for any scholarships yet, but Hof University offers various scholarships like DAAD, Deutschland Stipendium, and other scholarships. Overall, I am very much satisfied with my university as the professors are approachable, the course is well-structured, and the country offers a safe and international environment that allows me to grow both academically and professionally.
Likes (Student Life): There will be regular lectures, seminars, and presentations. The university campus is very calm and serene, offering a good atmosphere for students to study. The library is well-equipped, and the university campus offers various facilities. Regular career-related and community-based events take place at the university. Hof University has clubs for sports, international networking, entrepreneurship, cultural exchange, and student representation.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are few Indian restaurants but they lack authenticity and are expensive. I would rather prefer trying local cuisines and cooking Indian food at home. There are few supermarket which have a large selection of Indian groceries and frozen items. Also one can go to a nearby larger city like Nuremberg to buy Indian groceries.

Practical and industry-oriented.
Tips: This is a very good course. The internship opportunities are excellent and significantly enhance your CV for future full-time positions. The only consideration is the semester fee of 3500 euros. Apart from that, it's fantastic. Before coming to Germany, it's crucial to learn German to at least a B1 level, and having at least two years of experience in India will make life much easier.
Likes (Indian Food): There are various options available both on and off campus. The canteen occasionally offers Indian food, and they also have vegan options. However, since you've come so far, I encourage you to embrace the local cuisine; it's quite good as well.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are some student assistant jobs, require you to contact different professors. Additional, there are off-campus jobs, but those usually require good German skills. There are also some helping jobs in production facilities that don't require much German.

The university is good and is really well integrated with classrooms, a gym, the mess, etc.
Tips: I believe everyone transforms once they have international exposure. You get to see that people enjoy the sauna more than the gym. Winters are cold and empty, while summers are lively. I was fortunate enough to be selected for a semester scholarship from Erasmus. It was 1800 euros. It helped a lot with the expenses you have as an international student. Satisfied with the university, especially my course, as I come from a different professional background.
Likes (Student Life): Since it is a small city and the highest in Bavaria, coming from India, you get to see snowfall every winter. The college is really well integrated with classrooms, a gym, the mess, and everything else - it’s a complete package. You have many events like a boom party, a Halloween party, and a job fair etc. I was an active member of the SV, which is the student union. You also have the ISN, which is the International Student Network, a Christian Student Group, Hofspannung, and many others.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Although there is one restaurant, Ganesha, where you can find Indian food, the taste isn't on par with the Indian palette. Instead, the curries are sweet. When you're out eating, try doner, local bakeries, or pizza shops. But if you really crave Indian food, I recommend cooking it yourself. YouTube can really help, too. Plus, as a student, cooking your own food is cheaper than eating out, and that's helpful if you're on a budget.

A supportive, warm, and welcoming university.
Tips: There is a cultural shift to be aware of. In Germany, shops close at 8 pm every day, including weekends and public holidays. I got a scholarship with Bosch and applied for it through their portal. During my six months there, I worked for 35 hours a week as an intern. It’s very easy to find internships during the course. I was lucky enough to get one in Stuttgart with a decent remuneration, which is usually enough for daily expenses. The experience is excellent as you get to learn so much within the work environment. The colleagues are also excellent and supportive. Overall, I am satisfied with my university and the country is very welcoming.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Finding Indian food options is rather difficult. There are 2-3 Indian restaurants, but they are slightly expensive. Usually, it takes around 25 euros to dine at an Indian restaurant per person. I prefer cooking myself as it’s cheaper because other cuisines are relatively cheaper.

Practical learning with strong industry exposure at Hof University.
Tips: Hof University offers practical learning and strong industry tries, but students should be prepared for independent study and German bureaucracy. The transition involved a cultural shift in academics, work-life balance, and social life, with the language barrier being a challenge Learning German helps significantly. Overall, I'm satisfied with my university and course. Germany provides good career opportunities, though adapting to the weather and culture takes time.
Dislikes (Part time work): As Hof is a small city with lots of students it becomes difficult to get on-campus jobs and also it's difficult to get a job outside because of the language barrier. If you found a job the average payout for a part-time job will range around 900-1200.
