Living Expenses

Please ensure you have sufficient financial resources to meet the requirements for obtaining a visa and residence permit as a student. International applicants must demonstrate that they can cover their living expenses and study-related costs through one or more of the following:

• Blocked bank account. A "blocked account" in Germany (Sperrkonto) is a special type of bank account used to prove financial resources to support a visa or residence permit application. It is called "blocked" because the deposited funds are not immediately accessible; instead, they are gradually released, typically as a monthly allowance, once the account holder arrives in Germany. Blocked accounts can be opened in the home country. For more information please visit blocked account Germany.
• Sponsorship (Bürgschaft). A person residing in Germany can be a sponsor as patron or guarantor, assuming complete financial responsibility and an irrevocable bank guarantee.
• Scholarships or grants. The letter of award of a scholarship and official grant documents prove the required financial support.

 We strongly suggest seeing the complete requirements of the German embassy in your home country.
