Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of doing an FSJ in Germany?

An FSJ immerses you in a real German workplace for a year while providing accommodation/stipend support, making it much easier to transition directly into a Nursing or Hospitality Ausbildung in Germany.

Which German exam should I clear for an FSJ visa?

Clearing the Goethe-Zertifikat B1 or telc Deutsch B1 exam gives you the strongest profile for both German sponsoring organizations (Träger) and visa approval.
