Education fairs are good only if they are free to attend. But before attending one, I'd suggest you do some research regarding which unis are you interested in, how was their intake last year, etc. Then check if that uni is taking part in that fair. Some questions that you can ask in person to get more clarification as they won't be available on the website:
- What is current percentage of postgrads who have landed a job? Are there career fairs organized? What assistance wrt to job search should a student expect from the uni?
- Opportunities for on campus jobs like TA RA? What is the pay and do you get any tuition waiver?
- Where do students live? What are the monthly expenses? Are there social events like cultural, team building, etc., organized?
Since you are looking at Germany specifically, do apply for APS certificate ASAP even before you start the application process. It was hell for me in 2023 xD
Maybe but the interest rates will change. It won't be fixed. Avoid these loan companies. Get it from big banks. If that's not possible, you can get the loans refinanced at a lower rate
