Is Germany a good option for me considering my backlogs and percentage?
It depends. With 53.18% in your Computer Science graduation and 15 backlogs, Germany is possible but your options will be limited.
- Top universities (like TU9) usually require higher percentages (65%+) and minimal backlogs (often up to 3).
- Universities of Applied Sciences may accept up to 12 - 15 cleared backlogs and are more flexible on percentages.
- Your 5 years of IT work experience is a strong advantage and can help offset academic gaps.
- For a student visa, you’ll need an admission letter, proof of funds (about €11,904/year, subject to change), health insurance, and language proficiency (IELTS/TOEFL or German).
Focus on practical universities and highlight your work experience.
