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.
