A Wonderful Rollercoaster in Berlin :)
Tips: It's a great university, and I am grateful to be a part of it. However, yes, it's also stressful as one would learn a lot of new things in studies and in life. Living, earning, and studying in a new country have their own ups and downs. I did not avail myself of any scholarships, but there are some and they can be found under DAAD.
Likes (Indian Food): Berlin is an international hub consisting of a wide variety of restaurants from all over the world. However, yes, the food might be hilariously expensive (normal dal for 12 euros). I prefer to cook at home, but the mensa for lunch is a good alternative.
Dislikes (Internships): I rated internships low because HU Berlin operates like a traditional research university—meaning they don't have a placement cell that hands you corporate internships. You have to hunt for companies and apply completely on your own. Professors are super supportive if you ask for academic guidance or reference letters, but career placement isn't their job. The upside is that you can get great hands-on experience on campus by working as a HiWi (student assistant) alongside researchers and professors in your department.

A well-rounded academic and cultural experience with a vibrant student life in Berlin.
Tips: I joined the programme with a DAAD fellowship. We had meetups every 6 months where I met other students with the same scholarships from different South East Asian countries which was a great way to connect. Berlin has a large Indian community and I was actively involved in the cultural events and sports. I was also initially living with German flatmates which involved some cultural adjustments but over time I adapted comfortably.
Likes (Indian Food): Due to the wide variety and high number of restaurants in Berlin, there is more competition. Therefore, the prices are reasonable and affordable to students compared to smaller towns and cities where the availability of Indian restaurants is not much. On average, you can find at least one Indian restaurant every 1-2 km in Berlin. I generally prefer cooking at home but I occasionally eat outside too. University cafeterias are also a convenient and affordable option for regular meals.
Dislikes (Safety): Berlin is a large metropolitan city with a very diverse population, including many immigrants and homeless people. Therefore, there are occasional safety concerns, like theft. For eg, bicycle theft is quite common in Berlin. Students are therefore asked to use strong blocks and be cautious. Apart from campus security, the university provides controller access to certain buildings, student ID validation, and CCTV in common areas; however, there have been some incidents where unauthorized people have disguised themselves and entered the building. In some cases, the laptops and personal belongings have been stolen during lunch break when the rooms were attended.
