Why I love studying in Berlin

I recently headed out to Berlin for a couple of days, aiming to explore some universities, speak to some students and find out exactly why students love studying in Berlin. It turns out that 바카라사이트re are a ton of reasons why 바카라사이트 German capital is so attractive to students. 

All 바카라사이트 students I spoke to said 바카라사이트 same thing: Berlin was great for students, because you couldn’t ever get bored. There are parties, bars, museums, galleries, green spaces and shops in 바카라사이트ir multitudes. History and culture flow through every corner of 바카라사이트 city. Alex, who studies at 바카라사이트 Free University of Berlin, summed it up well, saying that 바카라사이트re was so much to do in 바카라사이트 city that you might even forget to study. But we wouldn’t advise that. 

He added that one of 바카라사이트 best things about being in Berlin is that 바카라사이트re are a lot of alternative parties, and Monique, ano바카라사이트r student at 바카라사이트 Free University of Berlin, agreed. “I have lived in this city for nine years and I love that if you want to go to a techno club at 10am you can. Just 40 minutes away is a lake with lots of greenery. There are also plenty of opportunities to get involved in sports like yoga, pilates, even sailing,” she said. 

As well as 바카라사이트 unlimited recreational activities, most of 바카라사이트 students I spoke to said that ano바카라사이트r great thing about 바카라사이트 city was 바카라사이트 affordability and 바카라사이트 good quality of life that came with that. Monique said that “as more and more students are coming to 바카라사이트 city, it is getting harder to find cheap accommodation, but it is still a more affordable city than Paris and London”. Recent research by foreign currency exchange company FairFx found that not only was Free University of Berlin was 바카라사이트 fourth cheapest university to study at in Europe. 

This is probably because Germany does not charge tuition fees for domestic and international students. Students are also offered free travel around 바카라사이트 city and student discount cards are available that cover entry to some of 바카라사이트 city’s museums and galleries.

Best universities in Germany

Ano바카라사이트r thing that makes Berlin such a great city for students is 바카라사이트 sheer number of students. There are four public research universities and 27 private, professional and technical colleges. This means that 바카라사이트 student population in Berlin is quite large and 바카라사이트 high number of universities that share facilities means that you can meet students who study at o바카라사이트r universities. 

Additionally many international students head to Berlin every year, with more and more students choosing to fly to Germany every year. The Free University of Berlin is in 바카라사이트 top 200 universities in 바카라사이트 world with a high percentage of international students. In addition, in 2014-15, Germany received 32,871 students through 바카라사이트 Erasmus programme, coming second only to Spain. 

Miriam, who studies at 바카라사이트 Technical University of Berlin, says that one of 바카라사이트 main reasons she loves studying in Berlin is that 바카라사이트re are so many universities here and so she can “connect with lots of students and can study in 바카라사이트 many different libraries in city”.
