Health insurance for students

If you are planning on studying at a private non-state-accredited university, are 30 years and older, starting your 15th semester (or higher) or are a doctoral student, you will need to get insured privately. Examples of private non-accredited universities are language schools or preparatory colleges (Studienkolleg).We offer private health insurance that suits the needs of international students.

If you are a properly enrolled student at a state-accredited university you can choose between getting insured under the statutory insurance scheme or private insurance scheme.
