Template Good Faith Estimates

Maybe this part is less interesting but certainly is useful for people who want to go to Germany:

- arrival:
especially important to come to Bonn in the morning - no one will answer you at 2 am in the same way you would complicate the issue a key to the room and bedding.
- the same day or next you'll have (a) to settle matters related to Mietvertrag (contract rent for the room). If something you do not fit in the room that you have received this attempt to change - Everything is to do, but that the Germans are lazy. And it's awfully lazy. When signing the contract you will have to pay a deposit per room which is now half of the monthly rent and of course for the first month. You do this by Cash on hand.
- should also go to the AOK (German Sickness Fund) and ask for a certificate that you are exempt from charges for insurance (based on the EHIC card.)
- for this you must pay Semesterbeitrag - in my case it was 170.90 Euro. From what I remember she wanted Sparkasse KoelnBonn 7.5 Euros as payment for such a transfer - that's why we made the transfer from the account of Robert.
- the same day we go to Saint Augustin (line 66 from the Hauptbahnhof, the direction Siegburg), get off at Sankt Augustin Markt. There, in Mrs. Ute Schriefers-Jung and upon proof of the AOK, and you'll get Studierendenausweis SemesterTicket, which entitles you to ride all the modes of action in the district (VRS company dedicated to these services), even trains with the sole exception of EC, IC and ICE. It is important to note that the 19 hour week and on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, you can carry one person for free. Generally, for such a ticket it is advisable as soon as it runs off are quite expensive. For example, from Bonn to Sankt Augustin pay 3.3 €
- Later Bürgeramt go to Bonn, where he get checked in and by the way you get this book here:
where you'll get a ticket to every tourist attraction in Bonn - museums, galleries, theaters, opera, and the swimming pool and boat cruises on the Rhine.
- check you need to make in order to open an account - I started at Sparkasse KölnBonn - have the most branches and ATMs.
- as you already know your account number to enter it on Bankeinzugermächtigung and you give the Studentenwerk, so they can collect a couple of those two hundred Euro for your room:)

Generally in all these matters to help get you your StudyBuddy, which of course does not mean that you do not know what you have to do upon arrival:)

Important Note: All official matters should be handled in the morning. For example, the Studentenwerk in hours 9-12, Bürgeramt open: Monday and Thursday 8-18, and in the Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 to 13 At university, you may want to choose rather early. The stores have already written: all closed on Sundays, and the week up to 20 So far not met with any "frog" active around the corner to 23, and that far from Tesco and liquor store open 24 hours.
As you can see all purchases can think in advance so as not to die of hunger or thirst, and by the way nobody has to work at night or on Sunday.

next Your job is to put the plan - about this a little later - how I do it for sure, I will describe.
