I am a PhD. student in Germany coming to US as a visiting student. Must I get any insurance to apply for visa?
I will have my regular salary from my German institute for my living costs there and I stay in the US for 5.5 month. Does my German (TK) insurance work in US? Do I need an international insurance to get my visa? How expensive it would be?

Ich würd's mal mit ner Auslands-Zusatzversicherung probieren. Aber frag erst mal bei deiner deutschen Versicherung nach, wie lange die bei Aufenthalten im Ausland bezahlt. Die meisten machen das für eine bestimmte Zeit, so bis zwei Monate. Die Zusatzversicherung wird meistens auf ner Tagesbasis brechnet, also solltest du wissen, wie lange deine normale Versicherung im Auslandsschadensfall für dich und deine medizinische Versorgung aufkommt, damit du dir eine Zusatzversicherung besorgen kannst, die sofort nach dem Ablauf der normalen Versicherung einspringt, aber nciht unbedingt sehr viel eher. Achte auch darauf, das Rückführung usw mit drin sind! Ansonsten: Im Fall der Fälle must du halt viele Fragen beantworten, aber die TK, so wie jede andere Krankenkasse, zahlt auch an US Amerikanische Ärzte. Für's Visum must du Nachweisen, daß du Versicherungsschutz für die gesamte Dauer deines Aufenthalts hast. So ein Tagessatz bei der Zusatzversicherung lag bei mir, wenn ich mich recht erinnere, so bei 2 Öcken am Tag. Frag einfach mal die TK.

As an international full-time student you have limited rights of travel, you can maximum take one quarter break, you can leave United states at anytime and come back by showing your I-20 at the port of entry. However you will get a transit visa in germany for that period of visit.

Things to do for a college student in Heidelberg, Germany?
I'm currently a college student in Heidelberg for the summer with some of my friends and I was hoping some of you would have some recommendations on where to have fun that are not listed on the travel books. Are there any good clubs, good pubs and your suggestion on what kind of bier to order while we're here. :) Basically.. what to do in this town for a college aged student.

ask the question under Travel>Germany. There should be more Germans to answer it.

Try spend an afternoon or evening (esp. if on the weekend) at the meadows along the Neckar (Neckarwiesen)...well, as soon as the weather gets better. There will be plenty of people, also with bbq equipment and you can meet a lot of locals there. in the quarter between Römerkreis and Bismarckplatz there are a lot of nice bars and cafes. You can have a good brunch on sundays there.

I'm an Asian American student going to Germany?
I'm an Asian American student going to Germany?
I'm 16 and a girl, going with the rest of my class to Germany this summer. I'm kind of frightened by racial discrimination. I will be staying at my exchange student's house for about 3 weeks and afraid I will not fit in or the German students will not like me. I really want to go, but I'm not so sure how I will be treated there.

Well - are you frightened in your hometown? If not so do your things just as usual.You,re not coming alone as you say.Each one of your classmates shout keep an extra watch one each one during your stay.That's all about.
2 :
to which city are you going to? it really depends on, which place in germany you are going to. for instance, there are many multicultural cities, e.g. berlin, frankfurt, hamburg, düsseldorf, cologne and others, which have a high percentage of asians and other 'non-caucasian' immigrants/citizens. i think that the german students (many with foreign origin) in school won't discriminate you, because you are asian. (the situation may different in a little village, which hasn't a sizeable foreign population.) however, don't be scared to come to germany, it's an (in the most states) open-minded country and it's becoming more and more multicultural.

Racism in Germany is significantly less than in the US just compare criminal statistics of the two countries. There is nothing to worry about enjoy your stay in Germany

How long does it take to get a student visa for Germany?
I am going on an exchange program. I leave July 31 and I just found out I have to apply for the visa myself. I leave tomorrow and will be out of the country for three weeks (until June 29). Will I have time to get the visa when I get back? (tomorrow I leave for Colombia- not Germany) I am not a US Citizen but permanent legal resident.

Apply today, at the very least look at the documents you need. and try to get an appointment for an interview at the German embassy. It usually takes more than one month to process a student visa, since the documents have to be send to Germany for approval. 3 months total processing time is not unusual, since they will need to give you an appointment for an interview before they do anything with your application at all. This is especially true when you'd need a visa to travel to Germany as a tourist. US citizens can apply in person in Germany, so it is a lot faster for them.
