This is the secondary intake in Germany and students who miss applying for the winter intake can go for this intake. However, there are few courses available at the universities for this intake. It starts in April and ends in August.

April: Research courses and universities as per your career goals. Shortlist 8-10 universities in Germany and check their websites to see application requirements, course structure, due dates, and other information. If they meet your criteria, download their brochures, understand the fee structure, analyze your finance options, and so on.

August – September: Appear for language proficiency tests and entrance exams. Sometimes, you may be required to retake the exams to meet the admission standards. So, plan accordingly and retake the exams.

October – December: Prepare all necessary documents at least a month before the deadline for application. You can start preparing statement of purpose, motivation letter, create letters of recommendation, and so on. Start applying if all these documents are already in place.

December – January: Revert on acceptance letters and appear for video interview if required. Pay confirmation fees to the university.

January – February: Start the VISA process after receiving the acceptance letter. Organize your funds by applying for bank loans and scholarships.

March – April: Book tickets and get ready to start your semester in Germany.
