Germany for example offers free education for Americans/foreigners. I remember this was discussed a while back on HN. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9308

  Some states already require foreign students to pay 500€ each semester and others will follow. On top of that you will have to guarantee that you can support your life in Germany, meaning you are not eligible for any kind of government support if things get tough or you lose your job. Going there thinking everything will be provided is wrong and the COVID-19 crisis will get a lot of foreign students into deep trouble as they lose their jobs and can't support themselves.

    Only one state (BW) requires payment with no clear indication that others will follow. > you will have to guarantee that you can support your life in Germany What's so special about that?

    A lot of EU countries are not issuing standard/typical/normal visas at all. You can most likely forget getting a student visa altogether. At this point, you cannot even legally enter the EU (Schengen zone + more) without being an EU citizen or resident, unless you are a third-national humanitarian aid worker or diplomat, basically.
