Questions and answers about Steinke Institut

  • The Steinke Institut in Bonn, Germany offers a 6-week intensive German language programme with specific start dates. If you tell me when you would like to start, I can ask the school for availability.

    In addition to the group course, I would recommend booking some additional private lessons which she can use for whatever she wants, be it medical German or exam preparation.
    Rubén De Haro, LanguageCourse.Net - Mar 15, 2023
  • It is important to note that the institute does not offer free cancellation, even in the event of a visa denial. Consequently, a portion of the fees paid may not be refundable if your visa application is not approved.

    To mitigate the financial risk associated with the non-refundable policy, we strongly recommend considering the purchase of travel insurance that specifically covers education-related travel. Such insurance policies often include coverage for visa denial, ensuring that you can reclaim your course fees under these circumstances.
