Does anyone know more about how the German university and immigration systems works? They accept anyone from any country who can get there and has a high school degree? And then how hard is it to stay in the country after graduation?
If they do accept anyone, and its easy to stay there after school, why aren’t more people (who are a bit better off than the people Malengo’s working with) doing this? Or maybe they are and I just haven’t heard about it
Usually classes (especially entry-level) are in German, which is a big hurdle. Universities can decide themselves to offer courses in English and set requirements for English and German levels (at the beginning or some point of the degree). Malengo researches the details (which might change year to year) for their own strategy and to support the students in finding a fitting degree.
University is relatively cheap (state-run universities are subsidized heavily), but foreign students don’t get any other support (Germans do) and have to prove a source of income/sufficient wealth for their visum.
I don’t know the mechanics for working visas and permanent residency, but I’d expect it to be relatively easy for someone who did their degree here.
