That sounds like a lot of work. What have you found so far, while googling and in reddit, for example?
currently im trying to get b1 language level to have bachelor study in germany. then will apply for bachelor study of mechanical engineering. ı got lot of option when check the uni-assist.
there are many cities that i can study in (dresden,hannover,darmstad,frankurt,bremen,nordhausen,köln)
but to be honest
i realy dont have any idea which one is suit for me
as you know to start a educational life at abroad requires many responsibilities
such as finding a place to stay, etc.
i don't have any relatives or friends over there, so its always been in my mind which cities or states are better to choose
Darmstadt = nice, kinda pricey, close to Frankfurt
Hannover = uglier, more budget friendly, added benefit of 'hochdeutsch' being spoken
Frankfurt = very expensive but has some nice areas with benefits of being large, finance-centric city
Köln = only city you listed in nrw, have only passed through but always hear positive things about it
Nordhausen = much smaller than anywhere else you mentioned...smaller place usually means less variety and fewer internationals, but appearance-wise it has a nice historical charm and I'd assume the rent is cheaper than a big city.
you might have a look at wg-gesucht for the places you're considering to get an idea of what rent is like per square meter and the housing market in general
