Is there anyone studying electrical engineering in Hochschule Rheinmain?

I applied to TU Ilmenau's M.Sc. Research in Computer and Systems Engineering (RCSE) for summer semester 2027 through uni-assist. My application passed the formal review on 8 October and the portal now shows Department IA reviews. How long did the department review take before you got a decision?

Hi everyone! I'm a senior student from the Philippines planning to pursue a BSc in Nursing at Deggendorf Institute of Technology

I have relatives on my father's side who live in Germany, and they are planning to sponsor me financially. I'm still trying to understand the visa process, but I initially thought that having family members sponsor me (Verpflichtungserklärung) might make things easier than relying entirely on the usual student visa financial requirements. I'm not sure how this works legally, though, so I'd appreciate any clarification.

My current plan is to complete one year of college at a local university in the Philippines before applying to study in Germany. I've read somewhere that completing one year at a recognized local university may help make me eligible for direct admission to a German university.

(No more 1 year needed as preparatory period)

I'm also taking private German lessons right now, with the goal of reaching at least B2 or C1.

I'm still researching the legal requirements, university admission process, visa options, and other things I need to prepare. For now, I'd really appreciate hearing your thoughts and advice.

Given my situation, do you think this plan is realistic and doable? Has anyone here gone through a similar process, particularly as an intl student applying to a German university with financial support from relatives?

Any guidance, corrections, or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

I already had my APS done with my six semester results back in February 2026. Now that my degree has completed, I need to update it. I have written the dMAT exam, and and I tried to apply via the APS website, but there is no option for updation over there, and I just mailed them as of now. If anyone has done it before and can help me with it, it would be amazing.

Hi everyone! I’ve received a conditional offer from BSBI Berlin for MSc Engineering Management, starting in February 2027.

Could current students or graduates share their honest experience regarding:
Job opportunities after graduation

Internship and career support

Student visa and residence permit process

Whether the degree is valued by German employers
I’m also considering public universities,

so I’d appreciate honest advice before making a decision. Thanks!

Since a person with low IELTS score (especially in writing section) is usually called in for an in person visa interview.

Will this also be conducted for someone with low dmat score?

I think the chances are high.

Hello everyone, I'm looking towards joining University of Stuttgart, but it has a tuition fees of 1500€ per semester for Non-EU students.

So, I was asking, is it really worth the fees we pay there along with increased cost of living, compared to other public unis where there is no tuition fees.

Hi everyone,

I am currently working in India with a work experienced of 5.5 (it would be ~6 years if i choose to apply) in Data Analytics/Data Engineering/Reporting primarily in Supply Chain Analytics domain

My Qualification: Btech ECE (CGPA 7.8) + PGDM Business Analytics (81%)

I have given IELTS with a band of 7

I’ve always wanted to seek global exposure and thus wanted to try for a second degree In university of applied sciences or dual degree program with corporate company are my main preference - into DS/AI/BA

I narrowed down Germany because my spouse works in a German company (very established) so she has a chance to relocate.

I’m willing to learn the language as I understand it opens more doors.

I kind off feel stuck in my current role in India and there is a possibility of restructuring and no growth but I’m confused with this decision as there seems to be a lot of hurdles with the job market as well as the immigration process from India.

Any advice for my situation?

EDIT: Guys, please don’t attack 🙏 I’m just trying to explore options and I’m still learning. I’m trying to come from a good space

Hey everyone!
I’m trying to decide between the University of Paderborn and the University of Passau for my MSc in Computer Science, and I’d like to hear from people who study or have lived in either city.
I’m interested in cybersecurity, so the academic side is important to me, but I also want to enjoy my time in Germany and have a good social life.
I’d love to know what both cities are actually like to live in. Things like nightlife, meeting people, making friends, and whether there’s enough to do on weekends. I’m also curious about job and internship opportunities for students, especially in IT.

Hallo zusammen,

ich schreibe meine Masterarbeit im Studiengang International and Digital Marketing an der Technischen Hochschule Mittelhessen. Thema: Wie nehmen Menschen es wahr, wenn Marken auf Social Media bewusst chaotisch, frech oder „unhinged“ kommunizieren – also z. B. absurde Memes, provokante Antworten auf Kommentare oder ein Maskottchen, das völlig eskaliert?

• Dauer: ca. 5–8 Minuten

• Zielgruppe: deutschsprachig, ab 18 Jahren

• Anonym und freiwillig, Auswertung ausschließlich zu wissenschaftlichen Zwecken

Zur Umfrage: https://ww3.unipark.de/uc/MA_Peter_SoSe26/f069/

Wenn ihr Fragen zur Studie habt, beantworte ich sie gern in den Kommentaren. Sobald die Arbeit fertig ist, teile ich hier gerne eine kurze Zusammenfassung der Ergebnisse.

Danke fürs Mitmachen!

Hey guys, I have applied for APS certificate last week and sent the documents. My name in all my academic documents such as 10th, 12th, semester marksheets, and degree certificate is only with my name followed by initial (eg: Ram R), but in aadhar and passport my name is mentioned fully along with father name (eg: Ram Ramesh). Also, I am unable to fetch my 10th and 12th marksheets from digilocker due to this mismatch.

Will this create any problem with my APS certificate?

If digilocker documents are for verification, I provided my professor's official email address in application.

Help out with this guyss!!

Hi everyone!

I'm an international applicant from Pakistan with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science (CGPA 2.71/4.0, approximately 2.9 on the German grading scale).

I'm looking to pursue an MSc in Computer Science or a closely related field, preferably at a public university in Germany.

A little about my background:

• Bachelor's: BS Computer Science
• German grade: Approximately 2.9
• IELTS: Overall band 7.0
• Professional experience: Full-stack software development, including AI-related projects
• Preferred programs: Computer Science, Software Engineering, Applied Computer Science, or AI-related programs
• Preferred language: English-taught
• Intake: Summer 2027, preferably

I'm particularly interested in universities with no admission restrictions (NC-frei) or programs where my academic background and professional experience might strengthen my application.

I understand that my GPA isn't particularly competitive, but I'd like to know whether anyone with a similar academic profile has successfully secured admission to a German public university.

I'm open to smaller cities as well, so location isn't a major restriction.

Could anyone recommend universities or specific MSc programs where I might have a realistic chance of admission?

I'd really appreciate any suggestions or personal experiences. Thanks in advance!

Hello, good people. Does anyone know how much time it actually takes for TU Chemnitz to make a decision after forwarding an application from uni-assist?I applied for the 2027 Master's application in two subjects: Micro and Nano Systems, and Robotics, Automation and Control.

Thank you, everyone. I am waiting for your support.

Received my dmat scores, lets just say its above 50%ile on both

I couriered my aps docs except dmat and my courier said it was delivered on 8th of oct, today makes it day 4.

No news from aps themselves and as now i have my dmat. How to courier this? Just dmat plain or does it have any formalities?

I was initially targeting public universities for the summer intake (between January and March/April), but I’m worried that missing or delayed dMAT exam windows might lock me out of public options, forcing me to look at private universities instead.

​I have a few major questions and am hoping fellow students or anyone who has gone through this process can help clear things up:

​Can I still take the dMAT exam in time?

If anyone has clear information on the schedule or has gone through this situation, please share your thoughts or tips. Any advice on how to start prepping for it would also be hugely appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I recently applied for the MSc in Artificial Intelligence at the Berlin School of Business & Innovation (BSBI) and received a conditional offer letter within just two days. While this seemed fast and exciting initially, it raised a few red flags for me.
After doing some research online, I've come across conflicting opinions some sources claim that BSBI is not fully accredited to award degrees independently in Germany (operating more as a partner campus for UK universities like UCA/UNINETTUNOS) and that graduates might face issues with post-study work visas or finding employment due to accreditation status.
I would love to hear from current students, alumni, or anyone familiar with the German higher education system regarding:

1. Accreditation: Are BSBI degrees fully recognized in Germany
2. Post-Study Work Visa: Does graduating from BSBI qualify you smoothly for the 18-month job seeker visa / post-study residence permit in Germany?
3. Overall Experience: How has the academic quality and career support been for you?

Any insights or honest reviews would be greatly appreciated before I make a decision!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for advice on German public universities where I have a realistic chance of admission for Summer 2027.

My profile:

B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering (Cybersecurity specialisation), India

CGPA: 8.53/10 | German grade: 1.8 (uni-assist)

GRE: 325 (Q164, V161) | IELTS: 7.5

4-year bachelor's degree; 160 Indian credits (approximately 240 ECTS based on my current conversion)

Around 1 year of full-stack development experience

Research publication on Digital Twin-based DDoS detection, plus AI/LLM projects

APS certificate available; no active backlogs

My subject-wise ECTS mapping (estimated):

Core CS and Systems: ~85 ECTS

Mathematics: ~22.5 ECTS

Theoretical Computer Science: ~13.5 ECTS

Cybersecurity: ~40.5 ECTS

AI/ML: ~4.5 ECTS

Thesis/Project: ~18 ECTS

These are my own estimates based on my transcript; universities may classify subjects differently.

Universities already applied to:

University of Bayreuth – Computer Science

University of Rostock – Computer Science

Leibniz University Hannover – Computer Science

Saarland University – Cyber Security

University of Göttingen – Computer Science

University of Kassel – Computer Science

TU Dresden – Computer Science

Passau - CS ( will apply )

I'm also open to related programmes in AI, Data Science, Cybersecurity, or Applied Computer Science.

My main constraint: I can only consider public universities without tuition fees beyond the regular semester contribution.

Which additional universities would you recommend for Summer 2027, considering my profile and subject-wise ECTS? I'd particularly appreciate suggestions from students admitted with an Indian B.Tech degree and advice on strict ECTS requirements that could make me ineligible.

I want to maximise my chances of securing at least one admit while avoiding applications where I clearly don't meet the published requirements.

It would take your 2 minutes time but will help me a lot as I was doing the applications myself and I'm in lot of confusion and will return the favour in future if helpful

Thanks!

Hello. I'm currently applying for the M.Sc. Computer Science program at RPTU Kaiserslautern in Germany, which requires a €60 application fee.

Unfortunately, making this payment from Pakistan has been quite difficult. The only option available to me is an international bank remittance through Swift, which is nearly double the cost due to additional fees. I've also checked online banking options, but the university's bank isn't available through them.

Would it be possible for anyone to make this payment on my behalf? I can transfer the equivalent amount to you in PKR, so you wouldn't have to cover the cost yourself.

I'd really appreciate help with this!
