Student Visa

There are three different types of visas for students:
  1. Study Applicant's Visa - for those who have applied for a course at a university (or equivalent) in Germany but have not yet had a reply. This visa is valid for 3 months only and can be converted into a full visa for study purposes after you have been admitted to a higher education institution. You must apply for the Studienbewerbervisa prior to your departure.  Tourist Visas may not be modified after arrival in Germany.
  2. Student Visa - for those who have applied for a course at a university and have received an acknowledgement of their application.
  3. Language Course Visa - for those only wanting to do a language course in Germany. NB: A Language Course Visa cannot be converted into a Study Applicant's Visa or Student Visa in Germany. So if you want to do a course at a German university immediately after your language course, apply now for a Study Applicant's Visa or a Student Visa (these cover both the language course and the university course). Otherwise you will have to come back to Hong Kong after the language course is finished and apply again.
