A ranking of countries in Europe based on their attractiveness for foreign students released on Friday showed that just like last year, Germany leads the way. "Where Germany has made a considerable improvement is in the number of courses offered in English. While the UK and Ireland dominate this metric, offering almost all courses in English, Germany is second only to the Netherlands in the amount of courses students can study in English," he said. Nearly 2,000 of the 18,000 post-secondary courses to choose from in Germany cater to students from abroad in that they're conducted in the English language. Students at state-run universities in Germany - both local and international students - do not pay tuition fees, but rather, simple administrative fees of between €100 and €500 per semester that also cover their public transportation costs.
