Right now it is already beginning of April 2017 and most of you would have completed your applications for the German universities or will be in the final stage of applications. So, what now? What should you do next? Here is a list of 6 things to do after applying to German universities. 

#1. Track your applications:

There is a high chance that, you might have applied to more than 5 universities/courses and you need to keep track of all those applications. For instance, if they ask you to attend an interview in the selection process and at that time you cannot keep searching for the related links. Hence it is absolutely necessary to track your applications properly.

 #2. Prepare a checklist:

Once you receive an admit email/letter from the university, time will fly very quickly and you will definitely miss many things that you would want. Therefore, this will be the exact time to prepare a checklist with all the items you need to buy and prepare for your journey.

#3. Collect details about loans:

If you are going to take Educational loan, then you need to start the process now. Trust me, I have been through the same and if you going to avail a loan from the Government banks(in India) then the processing time is long. Hence, you need to start talking to the bank manager and explain your situation to him.

#4. Check for flights:

By this time, you might not know which city you might go to! But, most of the students will land in Frankfurt, Berlin, Munich, etc., basically the bigger airports and then move to the smaller cities. So, you can look out for the flights from your nearby city and so on.

#5. Learn about Blocked account:

Blocked account is one of the main criteria to get a VISA and it might take couple of weeks to complete all the procedures. Therefore, this will be the apt time for you to learn about how to open blocked account and its procedures.

#6. Apply for dorms:

In the last couple of years, there have been a lot of students applying to Germany. Hence it will be difficult for you to get a place to stay in the University dormitory. It is always first come first serve basis, so you need to apply for the rooms as soon as possible. You can always cancel the rooms, if you are going to select a different university. There is no need to worry about cancellation.
