so I was thinking about studying in germany until i heard this. Is there another way without having that much money? I wanted to work while studying to live and pay my university fees so what is another way to get a student visa without having a blocked account?

#

I am a Non-EU citizen btw

As for every time this question appears, yes, you need to deposit the money required.

ok so new update , i just took notice of "Proving that there is a person with permanent residency in Germany that can fund your education and life in Germany."
so i have a relative living in germany which have a citizenship so can i take advantage of it?

#

i can prove that they can fund me but can i like not take money from them but work to provide myself?

#

like on paper they are paying but they are not

If someone were to spend 4 years in Germany studying, and I had roughly 25k euros on hand, would that be enough to get a student visa? My parents cannot support me so that would only really last me for 2 years

You wouldn't live as a king but probably yes

it is also important to note, that they might request a bank statement from you, to see how you finance yourself. Also depending on the visa type, you might not be allowed to work for the first year or so, look into that.

Excellent, that's so relieving.

I know how to live on oatmeal and butter.

haha, i wouldn't recommend that. You can find a job and save the first two years to spend in the last two

I plan on Having roughly 25k Euros before I apply for a student visa

#

Possible with 45 hours a week in the factory I work at if I save most of my money and live with my dad

#

Sounds nice though, having 2 years without working.

i want to get a declaration letter from a relative but not support me financially i just want the letter to get in, My family cannot support me with money, so i was planning to study medicine and work at the same time for 20 hours a week. a minimum wage is 12 euros/hour so i will get roughly 960 euros which i will pay rent, food , transport , etc.
in the same time i want to pay for my university approx 400 euros each semester.
i cannot make a closed account using 12k euros as i dont have this much money

#

will they need like a document from the one i will get the declaration letter from that they are actually support me

#

?

ig you would have to go for a small loan of like 3-5k eur or work part time and earn that

#

so you would have made a extra $10k in 4 years (240 days a year)working on a wage of 10 eur/ hr

Who would hire me for 1 hour per day?

I'm going to look that up

#

sure just make sure to not exceed like 500 or 560 eur a month depending on your state you stay so you don't need to pay taxes

#

a bit of funds would be lost due to transaction fee but ig this is the only way

#

I can only speak from my experience when I had a student visa- whenever I renewed I had to show a bank statement proving I had the amount. When I first came it was in a blocked account and had to be in a blocked account. When I renewed my student visa it was in a normal account (I think? I would have to double check.. ) but they still wanted to see the amounts as well as the past month statements. I had a student job at the time of renewal as well and a declaration of my parent‘s bank statements and their intent to fund me if required, just in case, but they were really only interested in my own account statements..
