Visa

Visa

All students must legally reside in Germany.  

Two important things BEFORE applying for a student visa: 

The best time to apply for a German student visa is immediately after receiving the university letter of admission and securing the necessary funds to live and study in Germany. 

Blocked account: 

  • A student must have secure finance proof amount: 11.904€ for 1 year (992€/month). 

  • Best options: Fintiba or Expatrio. More information can be found here: Germany Student Visa - How to Apply for a Germany Student Visa (germany-visa.org).   

  • For any questions regarding the visa application process, please contact us: [email protected]. 

Type of Visa our students must apply for:  

  • For programs that last more than 3 months, applicants must apply for a German National Study Visa / Long term Visa. 

  • The German student visa processing time is usually around 4 – 6 weeks.   

  • You must apply at least four months before you arrive in the country. 

Health Care and Health Insurance

All students are required to carry their own health care insurance and accident insurance. Coverage is required from the date of departure from their country of residence until their return there. The coverage must meet the requirements established by the German government and the German consulate. The Admissions office will be pleased to help you choose the best type of insurance for your needs. Schiller International University cannot assume responsibility for students who fail to take out adequate medical insurance.   

Members of the Schiller International University Administration are on call during opening hours to give assistance. In the case of medical emergencies and in case of serious illness, medical treatment is readily available at the Hospital for “Innere Medizin”, Im Neuenheimer Feld (INF). 

Cost of Living

We know that figuring out how to start your housing hunt can be quite confusing. To make it easier for you, we have compiled a list of the most important information, as well as hints and tips below.  

Dormitory:  

  • Our student dorm rooms feature: 21–25m² modern studios with built-in kitchen and ensuite bathroom, free Wi-Fi, gym and laundry facilities available. More information can be found here: Campus Viva - student apartment / Heidelberg.

Other Tips

It Is time to ack and prepare for the trip! 

A packing list can help you remember to bring everything you need. Don’t forget to add things to help you feel at home. If your apartment has a kitchen, consider coordinating certain items with roommates to avoid crowding the kitchen with duplicate dishes and appliances.
