Insurance

Non-EU-students should be careful in selecting a health insurance plan as it has to satisfy the very strict requirements of the university and the immigration office (for visa/residence permit application).We strongly recommend purchasing full German student health coverage for the semester at EBS. All public German insurance providers offer the same, comprehensive services for the same price (ca. 130 EUR per month).
