Web Session: Pre-Departure Briefing for Germany-bound Students
Event Information
Leaving for Germany for your studies is not something you do every day! The visa needs to be applied for, accommodation needs to be looked for, bags need to be packed, and a lot more. To help you manage all this the DAAD is offering a pre-departure briefing. This session becomes even more useful with various associations of Indian students joining it. You can ask them any questions that you may have and get tips that will help you. They will share the information about the city you are headed to, their social and mentorship activities, and a lot more.
The programme will be as follows:
