Health insurance is compulsory by German law while studying in Germany.

Register with a public or private health insurance provider before arriving in Germany and get a student insurance cover. Give the dispatch number of RWTH Aachen University to your health insurance company: H0000784. Your health insurance status will then be reported to RWTH Aachen University automatically.
