edgarallanhoe asked: Hallo!! You seem like quite a helpful person, so I thought I would give this a go here...

I'm in a dilemma in the United States with college expenses, since it's REALLY expensive here. Last year I looked into the expenses of university costs in Germany and from the information I gathered, it appears it is either free, or it is around 500 Euros per semester for tuition, which is insanely good.

Sooo, I've been debating taking money I had saved up here and would be burnt ou in one semester of college here, moving to Germany (I speak a little bit of German from my family members), and learning it there to get my citizenship and all that jazz, while I get one of the EU work visa things, so I can work and live there during that time. Then eventually, when I get enough knowledge of German, getting a university education there and staying in Germany then for my life, since I plan on moving there anyways after college here.

So what would you recommend I do, or how I go about this? I'm hoping I'm not asking too much from you with this.

If you could, and since I know this limits you on the lenght of your answers I think, you can email me at my email, which is GombosKevin@Gmail.com

Your help would be appreciated, danke! (:

No problem! :) The first thing you need to do is talk to the university you’d like to attend. You have to find out which possibilites you have in regards to studying here. There are some subjects that are taught in English but those are still relatively scarce. So maybe you’ll have to pass a language test. Some programs require a certain grade point average - the so-called “NC” (numerus clausus). You also have to have highschool degree that complies with the German “Abitur”.

If you want to wait and first try and work and learn more German here, you’ll have to get information at the Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) or at the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees.

Unfortunately, I don’t know much about laws and regulations in regards to this matter, so I cannot give you more information at the moment. You can also always contact me on Facebook - so add me if you have an account. :)
