About UB
University of Bremen (UB) — public non-profit university. It is located in Bremen, Germany. The higher education institution was founded not so long ago — in 1971 — which is why it is considered one of the youngest in the country. UB is a member of European University Association (EUA).

The academic calendar at UB is divided into two semesters, as in many other universities in Germany. For convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year.

When choosing an educational institution, it is important to be aware of additional costs: accommodation, transportation, study materials, meals and personal expenses.
You cannot enter a German university after the 11th grade, because schooling there lasts longer than 11 years. First, you need to eliminate the academic difference. To do this, foreign students go through a preparatory year in special educational institutions — Studienkollegs. Before applying, you need to pass the TOEFL exam. The minimum TOEFL score is 95.

UB campus
The educational institution has a suburban campus. This means that students study close to a big city and can quickly get to it by public transport. At the same time, this location allows you to create a close-knit student community, since all events are held on campus. The university students have access to the library. It is an integral part of learning. Students come here for educational literature or to do their homework. Student life at UB is filled with intercultural activities, as not only local students study here, but also students from abroad. The exchange of knowledge and experience, networking and new acquaintances — all this is an integral part of studenthood.
To stay in Germany after graduation for another 18 months, you need to apply for a graduate visa, which allows you to work without an offer from an employer. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
