  If you are still abroad and wants to become EURASIA language student contact us.

• EURASIA offers all students enrolled on a German course with us the opportunity to stay with a German homestay or in a shared student apartment.

Living in a shared student apartment

• In a shared student apartment you will have your own room, while kitchen and bathrooms are usually to be shared with other students. The EURASIA Institute works with shared student apartment providers where our students can stay.

Living in with a German homestay

• Staying with a family is certainly advantageous for your German studies, and it is also an interesting experience. Younger students, particularly, feel more at home in a family. The German families associated with EURASIA very much enjoy hosting foreign students.
• If you want to book or extend your Living contact us!

• According to German law § 5 paragraph 1 Nr. 9 Sentence 1 SGB V, all students are required to obtain health insurance.
• This means you can only enrol if you register with such health insurance that is valid for at least two semesters.
• We support you in finding your health insurance.
• If you need support, contact us!

• When applying for your visa, you must prove you are able to finance your stay in Germany. You must be able to prove you can fully support yourself for at least the first 12 months. The exact living expenses depend on your lifestyle.

How much can I work?

• Students from non-EU countries:
• Students from non-EU countries may work 120 full days or 240 half days per year without being self-employed. A day on which they work more than four hours counts as a full working day (Residence Act §16b (3)).
• Students from EU countries, the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, Cyprus, and Malta:
• Students from these countries can work in Germany under the same conditions as German students without restrictions.
• A part-time job during your studies is the perfect way to prepare for your later career start. For example, a position as a student assistant or working student can already provide important experience in research and practice. The first point of contact for questions regarding applications and careers is the Career Center at EURASIA.
