Braunschweig in Lower Saxony has one of Germany's oldest technical universities and a strong research ecosystem. Its proximity to Wolfsburg, home of Volkswagen, makes it attractive for automotive and engineering careers.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Braunschweig. Options in nearby Hanover and Göttingen are also worth considering.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short holiday course, 3-6 months for everyday communication, and usually 9-12 months for a university application. At most schools, courses can be extended week by week.
Fees vary from school to school: institutes such as the Goethe-Institut are usually at the higher end, while private language schools offer more flexible pricing. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
Language schools accept students all year round. For short courses, booking 4-6 weeks ahead is usually enough. For programs requiring a national visa, plan your application 3-4 months ahead to allow for appointment waiting times.
Your visa type depends on the length of your course: a Schengen visa for up to 90 days, and a national visa for longer stays. For a national visa application you submit proof of enrolment in an intensive course (at least 18 lessons a week), accommodation details, health insurance and proof of funds. NGGlobal helps you prepare complete documents.
