What is the process after I complete my IELTS exam and want to apply for masters abroad in Germany?

After you complete your IELTS exam, the next steps to apply for a Master's program in Germany are:

- Research and shortlist programs that match your background and goals. Check each program’s IELTS score requirement (typically 6.0 - 6.5 for English-taught courses).
- Verify your eligibility, including degree recognition and any language requirements.
- Prepare your application documents: transcripts, degree certificates, IELTS score report, CV, statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, and an APS certificate (required for Indian applicants; processing takes 4 - 8 weeks and costs about €150, subject to change).
- Apply through Uni-Assist or directly via the university’s portal, depending on the program. Uni-Assist charges €75 for the first application and €30 for each additional (subject to change).
- Wait for admission decisions.
- If admitted, prepare for your student visa: show proof of funds (about €11,904/year, subject to change), health insurance, and supporting documents.
