Can I take out private health insurance at a German higher education institution?
我可以在德国大学购买私人医疗保险吗？
International language school students, university students and preparatory course students: those attending higher education bodies can select MAWISTA Student health insurance. The MAWISTA Student tariffs have an excellent price–performance ratio and meet the requirements of the immigration authorities.  You must be exempt from statutory health insurance in order to register to study at a German university. In this case a private health insurance policy must be presented to any statutory health insurance provider. This provider then issues an exemption certificate or send this electronically to the university. Statutory health insurance companies often have offices at universities with representatives who can help with this. The decision to choose private or statutory health insurance should be considered carefully, as this choice is binding for the entire duration of your study.
推荐海外语言学生、大学生和与预科学生选择 MAWISTA Student 医疗保险。MAWISTA Student 医疗保险具有超高的性价比，并符合移民局对于医保的要求。 在德国大学就读，若想投保私人医疗保险，就需要申请豁免法定医疗保险。为此，您必须向相关法定医疗保险出示私人医疗保险的保险证明。然后，后者会签发一份豁免证书，或以电子方式将其发送给大学。法定医疗保险公司通常在高校设有办事处，其代表可以帮助申请人处理相关事项。 您应仔细考虑，是购买私人医疗保险还是法定医疗保险，因为一旦作出决定，您在整个学习期间就不得对您的投保类型再进行变更。
