So it runs out in November and I've been planning to engage my girlfriend this month or the next and I'm wondering because I don't want to leave My girlfriend and Germany what can I do to Extend the visa time or possibly get a new visa? My girlfriend is German and i plan to engage her this month or the next but my visa expires in november. What can I do to get a new visa or is it possible to leave the country and return to get 3 extra months when it runs out? I'm Australian

marry your girlfriend before november and you should be granted a permanent visa for germany as long as your gf is german
2 :
If you are an American, if you leave the country and come back, your passport acts as a 90 day visa.
3 :
If possible you should place that question right to someone who is in charge at the local Foreign office.(my personal opinion)

I was wondering if someone from Germany could answer some questions or perhaps someone that has gone through the process. Will I have to take the Abitur test? What is the cost of liveing in Germany? Etc. Etc.

If you apply at a German University there is a standard process for forreign applicants. You have to proove sufficient knowledge of the language. You can do so at your local "Goethe Institut", the German cultural institute (http://www.goethe.de/). You may have to make something like the Abitur test as German universities (esp. in Bavaria) often do not consider non-German (or even German!) school certificates as good enough. There are schools for such people which help to get the certificates you need. The university where you want to study can give you all information necessary. Note that any German university expects you to contact them in German language. Living expenses depend on where you are. But you should consider at least 1000.- Euro per month, better a bit more and in a place like Munich definitely more. (try http://studieren.de/studium-lebenshaltung.0.html which show statistics from 2003). I recommend you contact the German embassy in you home country and also the Goethe Institut. Esp. the Goethe Institut should be able to answer most of your questions. Feel free to contact me.

You could put "Wilkommen in _____(<-- name of your city)" or "Wilkommen zu Hause!" <-- welcome home! But if she's there to learn/improve her english maybe you should just write whatever you want in english!
3 :
My husband and I will be hosting our 7th exchange student (beginning in about 10hrs; I can't wait!!!) this year. On the sign we make, I always put some kind of party/celebration-type background (I'm a nerd and use PowerPoint - you can just put in pictures or something if you make it by hand), pictures of both the USA flag and the flag of their home country, and "Welcome to your new American home, we're glad you're here!" in both English and their language. I've also see signs with personal pictures on them. Many families buy a few ballons and/or may buy flowers for female students. Just make it something that conveys how excited you are about her arrival. Have fun hosting! It's a wonderful experience.

How much of an impact did the German student movement in the 60s have on democracy in Germany today?
How much of an impact did the German student movement in the 60s have on democracy in Germany today?
Ok someone suggested this would be a good topic for me to write about as my research paper. But before I decide, did the 60s student movement really have a huge impact on democracy in Germany and Europe today? And if so, how? Is there a place you guys can direct me to find sources or read up on this specific topic in german history? thanks in advance.

Am German in my mid 40s. My take is that whilst it no doubt was an important part of the development of the German post-war society, it is not something that is measurable and can easily be argued. How would it have influenced democracy? I cant think of a single thing. It is a question similar to 'How did the hippie era and Woodstock festival influence US democracy? It was part of society but not really shaping democracy. Not to discourage you, but I thought it is better to give an answer than to keep stumm. and i am not a historian or social scientist major.

Grants probably aren't exactly what you're looking for as most schools require you be a resident of the state/country and use them in that state/country to get them. You should start looking for scholarships. Try both American and German. A good place to start is http://www.fastweb.com.

Germans love kitsch and tacky souvenirs.^^ You can't go wrong with snow globes or little figures, coffee mugs, key chains, shopping bags, baseball caps or even T-shirts. Zippos are popular as well.
