Health Insurance for Students

General Information

In Germany, all students (under 30 yrs of age) must have sufficient health insurance, you generally have to choose a statutory health insurance provider e.g., BARMER, AOK, TK-Techniker Krankenkasse or DAK (to name a few). You can only be enrolled at Macromedia university if you have, proven, sufficient, health insurance coverage. Students over the age of 30 years are exempted.

All applicants, regardless of their country of origin, must therefore contact a German statutory health insurance provider and apply for statutory health insurance before enrollment.

Students from the EU, EEA (European Economic Area) countries, and Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Tunisia, Turkey and Switzerland, must apply for the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or an equivalent documentation (in German or English) - (Entitlement certification or the S1 Form) or (E-111, AT 11, ATN 11 or the BH-Form), in their home country, before coming to Germany, and then apply for confirmation from a statutory health insurance provider. See "What to do" below.

Students holding a private health insurance coverage (e.g. Mawista), must apply for exemption from a statutory health insurance. If the current health insurance from your home country (European statutory or a private health insurance) is recognised as sufficient in Germany, a confirmation will be issued.

What to do
Contact a statutory health insurance provider, and inform them about your upcoming studies at Macromedia University of Applied Sciences,
quote the Macromedia sender number H0002915.
The insurance provider will send a digital notification directly to Macromedia university, to confirm your health insurance status. This service is free of charge.

The insurance provider will confirm whether

  • you are sufficiently insured
  • you are exempted from the statutory health insurance obligation

You do not need to submit any confirmation in paper form.

If your health insurance coverage  is not sufficient, you will have to take on a statutory health insurance.
