This is the week I start breaking down each country and rate it based on its merits and disadvantages. To start this process, I will just go down my list, each week having a different country, and decide at Week Seven if I will eliminate any.
While looking through articles and other sites for information, I came across this site. It is the website of the Council on International Educational Exchange, and it offers a lot of programs around the world and has some in Europe as well. The information offered on the webpage could be useful later on. Germany If I were to study abroad in Germany, I would pick Munich. Munich's location is ideal: it's not far from Bovaria, Switzerland, and Austria. I also would not mind learning German while spending time there, and there are a ton of abroad programs that are in English too. The Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, though a very competitive school, has the large majority of international students in Germany. Attendance at Bavarian universities is generally free, but a semester fee is payable for each term. The Semester Fee at LMU currently (summer term 2018) amounts to about 130 euros, or about 154 USD. International students from other countries are allowed to work 120 full days or 240 half days per year. They are not allowed to be self-employed or work as freelancers. Students who want to work more need permission from the Agentur für Arbeit (Federal Employment Agency) and the Ausländerbehörde (foreigners' office). Whether they are given permission depends on the situation on the labour market; the chances are better in regions with low unemployment.
