Its about a month passed. How much money did you spend in Munich in this month? (I knoe that sometimes PhD gives grants or scholarships), but I mean net cost of living there. Thanks)
Well, the only "suspicious" part here is the rent. 600 Euro in 2024 is for many of us unreal. If you have good connection, you'd probably get a WG room for that much of a price. If not, you may assume that it can go up to 1000 Euro per month easily. And it is still hard to find an accommodation offer with 1000 Euro. So I would say 1500 Euro per month would be more realistic. (also including insurance for foreigners)
Sorry, but that‘s not realistic. I work in Munich too and there are plenty of shared apartments where you can get a room between 600€ and 1.000 € per month. For 1.500 € you can easily get a small apartment for your own.
I loved how the video is detailed! I would like to ask about your scholarship, how did get it? And what do you think that increased your acceptance chance? Do you study engineering?
So if you do some extracurricular activities this will always help :) It is not only about good grades and there are tons of different scholarships put there. Applying to several ones is always a good idea. There are Websites that list all the scholarships. Just look for "scholarship databases" or "Stipendien Datenbank" and you can set Filters to find some that make the best fit for you
im from Iraq and i’m now learning german i need to asking is there limit age to be accepted in university? and is there any way to get help to travel to germany i really need help… i have some money but it’s not enough for block account and i don’t know what to do
Haha yes! I mean for the last 4 years I had only 1GB so I know that this is sufficient for me :) I only use it for Google Maps or whatsapps sometimes as I try to stay away from my phone as much as possible. :)
Hi Mark, thank you for your clear explaination. I have a question, so is it posibble for international students in their 1st semester to have a part time job?
That is absolutely not my field of expertise, I am sorry. But ChatGPT says: "mechatronics opportunities in Germany are generally favorable, with a strong demand for professionals in various mechanical domains. Germany has a robust manufacturing industry, and mechatronics engineers are sought after in fields such as automotive manufacturing, industrial automation, robotics, and aerospace. Additionally, the country's commitment to innovation and technology ensures a steady demand for skilled mechatronics professionals."
Hey :) The more distant from the city Center, the cheaper it gets :) It is very typical to live in shared flats where you have your own room and share a Kirchen and bathroom with several other people. As you wsnt to go to Garching I would recommend finding something along the U6 Subway line as this is the one taking you to Garching :)
Werd fürn Anfang erstmal pendeln. Sind zwar von der Haustür bis nach Garching 90min is aber noch ganz akzeptabel. Naja wenn ich die Tipps aus deinen Videos befolge find ich vielleicht bald was.
Hey, I have a scholarship and get some money from the government in addition which combined Cover more than half of my momthly expenses. I worked one year full-time before starting my Masters so that I now have a bit of a buffer but my parents also help me out a bit.
Currently I don't, but I have worked basically during my whole Bachelors... It's very typical to have a working student job. Almost all students work part time :)
@@markus_rut Considering that point, do you have some savings to live? I mean, how much did you earn per month at work part time? or how much money do you have left after paying all stuff? Greetings from Chile!
