RWTH Aachen University is planning to introduce tuition fees between €3,000 and €5,000 for non-EU students. We’re working to prevent this because we believe EVERYONE should have access to free education.
Throughout this process, we’ve seen that many people have misconceptions about international students. That’s why we want to hear directly from you.
Whether you’re already studying here or planning to, your story matters to us.
This is a space for you to share your experience — completely anonymously. Please don’t include your name or any personal details. The stories sumitted here will be collected, translated, fully anonymized, and published as a book, to be distributed as part of the Students against Fees campaign.
You can write about anything you feel is important, or if you’d like, reflect on questions like:
- What motivated your decision to study in Germany?
- What challenges did you face or are you facing to make it to the RWTH?
- How much effort — emotionally, financially, or otherwise — have you put into this journey?
- How has your life in Germany been so far? How was it back then in your home country?
- What are your hopes for the future? Do you see a future in Germany?
Thanks for sharing. We are glad to listen.
