What else you should know about international health insurance for students
When spending a semester or internship abroad, insurance cover is not the only crucial factor. There are many other important and exciting issues surrounding a stay abroad. How about a semester abroad via an exchange programme? Where do I start when planning an internship abroad? Or would you prefer a gap year abroad during your studies?
We have compiled the most important information on these and many other questions in our blog post:
Insurance for private travel
If you do want to travel privately, we offer you various travel insurance policies, such as our Travel cancellation insurance or International health insurance.
Semester abroad in the USA
A semester abroad in the USA offers many advantages. On the one hand, you can improve your language skills and gain valuable experience that will benefit you later in your professional life. On the other hand, it can also strengthen your intercultural skills and you can make new friends from all over the world.
Interest in a semester abroad at a US university is particularly high among German students.
German citizens staying in the USA for less than 90 days do not require a visa. However, if you are a student, trainee, graduate or young professional taking part in an exchange programme or a working holiday, you will need a J-1 visa (Student visa for the USA)
Various forms must first be completed for the application. In addition to the DS-160 form, which is mandatory for all interested parties, the DS-2019 form must also be completed, which is specifically aimed at those who wish to apply for a J-1 visa. With the completed DS-2019 form, an appointment can then be made at one of the three embassies in Berlin, Frankfurt or Munich. The original signed forms, a passport photo, a valid passport and proof of payment of the SEVIS fee must be brought to this interview appointment. Further details on the required documents can be found on the website of the US diplomatic missions in Germany.
It is best if you deal with the application process as early as possible and apply for the visa. You should expect a lead time of around 4 to 6 weeks for the DS-2019 form. A visa can only be applied for once this has been received. You should also expect to wait for an appointment at the embassy. You can always find the latest information on visa waiting times at the following link.
