France offers delectable cuisine, an array of magnificent art and historical landmarks, and beautiful countryside.

Requirements

Most institutes will require GMAT, GRE, LSAT, or SAT scores for admission. Scoring well in these exams can also help admission even if not a mandatory requirement for the university. 

Learning French is very important for basic interaction, as the majority still don’t communicate as well in English. Many courses are taught in French and if chosen students will have to study it. Students may be required to give the DELF, DALF OR TCF exams, which are French language tests. 

Students are also required to register on the ‘etudes en France’ program which will guide students in taking all the necessary steps for registration.

The various types of bread and beer are also an important part of their heritage.

Living costs in Germany are pretty moderate. Students will require around 60 to 80 k INR per month. Housing is the main cost, but students can choose student residents which are much more affordable. Students will also receive free health healthcare (for necessary requirements) but will also require private insurance which will cover basic hospital/medical amenities.


Life

Germany is a great country for students as they will get to be a part of a wide array of experiences such as a robust nightlife, charming countryside, historic landmarks, and exciting festivals.
