Cost of living

Compared to other European countries, the cost of living in Germany is quite reasonable. You will need around 300 euros a month to cover your living expenses (accommodation is included on IFX Program´s cost). Our Participants live in shared apartments completely furnished located near to the College Campus making the commute easier, reachable by metro, bus or even on foot or by bicycle. Preparing and cooking your own meals is another way to save money, money that then you could use to afford taking day-trips – get on a train and in just two hours you are in the Alps!

Good Neighbors

Germans are very kind and helpful. They are pleased if you can speak the German language but they also speak English and enjoy showing how good their English is. In general, Europeans can be distinguished by their love for outdoor activities like swimming, bicycling, fishing or hiking so it is pretty important for students to integrate into German society and participate in these activities to better understand their culture and meet lots of people quickly.
