Settling for a University and City Due to Career or Circumstances
Tips: Finding accommodation here is challenging, so be prepared. Apply to Studentenwerk dorms as soon as possible, as the average wait is 12 months. Private accommodation is also difficult and expensive, so plan accordingly. Bureaucracy is straightforward so don't worry about it but here are the steps I've outlined (note that these might not apply to everyone): - City registration - Bank account - SIM card - Activate insurance - Get a health insurance card - Social security number - Tax ID - Apply for a president permit and get your RP card (usually around the end of your visa period before arrival) - Credit card (optional) - Activate your blocked account I'm familiar with scholarships like DAAD, the Deutschlandstipendium and the Niedersachsen Stipendium. For more details, visit their official website. You can apply for the first two scholarships once you receive your admission from your home country. Other opportunities I'd like to mention are the Erasmus+ and global exchange programmes. In Erasmus, you get a chance for 1-2 exchange semesters at universities in the EU or outside. In global exchange, you can go anywhere outside the EU. If funds are available, you might also get a scholarship through Erasmus.
Likes (Student Life): I feel so lucky to be a student at this educational institution. Be it due to the low cost of tuition fees ranging between u20ac300 and u20ac1000 per semester or the free travel tickets provided here, there are a lot of benefits. Moreover, there are dorms where students can live at a reasonable price, provided that you apply early enough, otherwise, you would need to wait. Apart from good education, research facilities, and faculty staff, something is always going on at the university. For example, in Gu00f6ttingen, where more than 30,000 students are studying at the University of Gu00f6ttingen, UMG, as well as in various other private institutions, there are always some events organised by these universities and their students. It is always fun. The best place at the university for me as a student is the central library. This is where I always go to study or work. There are different libraries at the university.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): For me, it deserves three stars since obtaining a job visa, work permit or permanent residency is relatively easy in Germany compared to the US. This is relatively easy since one does not require sponsorship from the company, all it requires of you is that you have a job if you are a foreigner. Nevertheless, obtaining a job may be quite difficult. From my experience, you have to be extremely skilful or know very good German to secure yourself a good job. In that case, it will depend on your job and money, hence the difficulty for me.

University of Göttingen - Just where an ambitious student needs to be!
Tips: Yes, this city has affected me in so many ways. First of all, everyone loves rules here. No breaking laws, especially traffic rules and cleanliness Learning German is a necessity for entering the job market. Professors will guide you and help you a lot. Yes, there are scholarships available. I am quite satisfied.
Likes (Safety): Göttingen is a student city, so everyone here is friendly, kind, and understands English, for starters. There is a strict police department for any crimes The only problem is the commute during late hours, so one has to be prepared for that. It's advisable to not roam alone in the city after midnight.
Dislikes (Internships): I rated internships low because out here in Göttingen, your actual technical skills completely take a backseat to the German language. It’s the ultimate gatekeeper. Look, the university tries to help by putting on career fairs, running workshops, and offering career services, but honestly, all of that becomes pretty useless if you aren't fluent. When it comes down to actual hiring, companies only care if you can communicate with their clients in German. You could be an absolute genius at your subject, but the moment a role requires client interaction, you're locked out if you only speak English. It makes the job hunt incredibly frustrating because language skills end up mattering way more than your actual academic talent.

Strong academics and friendly culture.
Tips: To be prepared for the course according to the European education system and not the Indian system. To not mug up things and write but to understand everything with a practical perspective. Most important is to interact with others, make friends and blend in with how others do.
Likes (Value for money): The organisation of the course, structure and execution of the course by the faculty make it top. The way every student is treated with respect and not just someone who paid for it feels it's incredible. The most important factor here would be discipline. That is very important to learn.

Studying Abroad: Learning, Growth, and Adaptation
Tips: If you're looking at Göttingen, the biggest reality check is that the academic system here is intensely research-driven and almost completely hands-off. You aren't going to have professors holding your hand through the coursework. If you don't have the self-discipline to manage your own time and stay on top of the reading, the intensive workload will bury you before finals even hit. The upside is that the program structure is incredibly flexible, so you actually have the freedom to steer the degree toward whatever specific niche you're interested in. Plus, living in a proper, historic student town like Göttingen is an amazing experience for international students. Germany as a whole offers a top-tier education system, and as long as you're willing to put in the work independently, the career opportunities down the line make the grind totally worth it.

Intense, research-oriented course.
Tips: For my course I'd say it's a pretty intense research oriented course. You cannot skip and skim through lectures and do last minute preparations. You have to prepare for exams like a junior researcher working in your lecturers lab, as the questions will be application-oriented in their specialized topics. It's one of the best college towns you can live in as a student. It's a small town and everybody knows everyone. Personally I love the walkability around the town and love the Deutschland ticket. When I feel like side-questing in life, Germany has wonderful, beautiful small villages that take me out of academic stress.

It's one of the best places to study in Germany for a student.
Tips: The city is very student friendly with a huge multiethnic international student body. The faculty is varied and very big, especially for life sciences. There's a very active student association, a sizeable amount of student accommodation options as well.
Likes (Indian Food): There are a lot of good Indian restaurants that are spread out all over the town. Some offer student discounts. The quality of food is very good, and in most places nearly the same as what you'd get back home in terms of flavour. The prices are comparatively reasonable.
Dislikes (Internships): The internship market here is very saturated for most streams. Although you can land internships, those will mostly be academic. An industry or a hybrid internship is very competitive. Fluent German is almost a default expectation and non-German speakers will struggle even more.
