Things to consider before you apply:

Familiarise yourself with the general requirements to study at CODE & do some research about studying and living in Berlin.

We recommend that you plan on it taking up to 3 months to complete the visa process. Assistance from CODE for our admitted students will include support during the visa process in your home country and also once you arrive in Germany.

Think about expenses you might have to take care of to make your CODE dream come true. Perhaps a scholarship is a solution.

We do not offer accommodation, scholarships, or any commitment to assume cost-of-living expenses for you.
