About Goethe-University Frankfurt am Main
Goethe-University Frankfurt am Main is a Public university in Europe, ranked #376 in the QS World University Rankings 2027. We confirm the exact fees, intakes and entry requirements for your profile — free.
Programmes here are €0–€21,000/yr — sourced from the university's own fees pages across 21 published programmes. Your exact fee depends on the course — we confirm it, free.
Entry requirements
Typically for German universities in this band, a relevant bachelor's in a closely matching subject with a strong first class (broadly 65-70% upwards, or around 7.0/10); a four-year Indian degree such as B.Tech/B.E. is the safest fit, while three-year degrees are assessed case by case for equivalence and are not always accepted for direct master's entry. IELTS around 6.5 for English-taught master's — not every programme has an English-taught version — or TestDaF 4 / DSH-2 where teaching is in German. Indian applicants must also hold APS certification, and many applications route through uni-assist. Requirements vary by programme — Vibedu confirms the exact ones for you, free.
Indicative for international postgraduate applicants — your counsellor confirms the exact cut-offs and English scores for your chosen programme, free.

Indicative estimate (annual tuition + living, €). Your counsellor confirms exact fees, living costs and the scholarships that reduce this — free. Living costs are an indicative national range in €, not this university's own figure. Tuition varies by course here, so we'd rather confirm your exact fee than print an average — ask us and it's free.
Exchange rates as of 18 Aug 2026 (30 days ago) — European Central Bank reference rates (AED via open.er-api.com), mid-market. The INR figure is converted from € at that rate. Your bank's remittance rate will be worse than mid-market, and currencies move a percent or two a month, so use these for planning rather than as the amount you will actually pay.
