AMAZING!!! BUT WHY AM I STILL SO SUSPICIOUS OF THE GERMANS MOTIVATION??? Xo Germany offers free college tuition to U.S. and international students Oct 10, 2014 8:15am PDT by Jen Hayden 446 239 This is incredible: All German universities are now free to Americans and all other international students. The last German state to charge tuition at its universities struck down the fees this week. Why are they offering such a generous plan? In explaining why Germany made this move, Dorothee Stapelfeldt, a Hamburg senator, called tuition fees unjust and added that they discourage young people who do not have a traditional academic family background from taking up study. It is a core task of politics to ensure that young women and men can study with a high quality standard free of charge in Germany. The perks dont end at free tuition: Even before Germany abolished college tuition for all students, the price was a steal. Typically semester fees were around $630. Whats more, German students receive many perks including discounts for food, clothing and events, as well as inexpensive or even free transportation. Considering the average student loan debt in the U.S. is $29,400, a lot of U.S. high school students would do well to start learning German.
