Common Mistakes• Students who don’t want to go to Germany, just “abroad”
• Applications not proofread or track changes visible
• Do not meet eligibility requirements but apply anyways – should research
thoroughly before taking the time to submit applications
• Do not contact alumni or attend an info session on programs
