Can I go abroad for studying my tech after twelfth in Germany?
Yes, you can study technology abroad after completing your 12th standard.
For Germany, you generally need:
- Minimum 70% in 12th grade from CBSE, ICSE, or state boards (subject to change).
- German language proficiency for most undergraduate programs. Proof through tests like TestDaF or DSH is typically required. Some English-taught programs are available but are more competitive.
- If you don't meet direct entry requirements, you may need to complete a Studienkolleg (foundation year) and pass the FSP exam.
- An APS certificate is required to verify your academic documents.
Public universities in Germany usually charge low or no tuition fees, but expect a semester contribution of €150 - €350 and living expenses of €800 - €1,200/month (figures subject to change).
