>I want to study computer science/engineering (in Europe, in English)
>I pretty much bombed high school (3.5 gpa)

what are my options?

backstory:
I have worked as a software developer for a few years, my coworkers always have an holier than thou attitude when they speak with me because I don't have a degree.

There are scholarships based on work experience? How does this work? What countries is this an option?
>>
>>17978777
>(in Europe, in English)

You want to study CS in the UK or Ireland then. Virtually no Bachelor programs that are taught only in English.

You won't be finding stipends or scholarships in Germany.

How fast could I learn the local language? Like German for example, would it be possible in a year, while working.

You need to reach C1 Level of Proficiency in the language.
Might be do-able with Dutch if you REALLY put your mind behind it, probably not possible with German.

How does applying to uni in Germany work? An entrance exam so my GPA isn't a problem? I remember from some school class that Germany has a clusterfuck school system, not just primary-middle-high-uni.

>not just primary-middle-high-uni

Generally speaking we have 16 different education systems as each state is in charge of its own and there is little centralization.
Generally speaking its primary > highschool > Uni (with highschool being 10 years if you look to get an apprenticeship and 12/13 if you want to go to university).

> How does applying to uni in Germany work

You'd just apply online, for most subjects (especially STEM stuff) there is no GPA requirement nor entrance exam since they are desperately looking for people to study these subjects.

However you might get fucked by the coursework because it is a lot higher/more difficult than in the US from what I heard.

Tuition is roughly 400-500 Euro per Semester and includes a public transport ticket in most cases.

Dude, if you want to go to a German speaking uni, go to fucking Switzerland, not Germany.
>unis are all in top 10-100 worldwide
>great niveau
>great image, especially law, economy, engineering
>English is the lingua franca and most bachelor courses at like ETH are taught in English... by American profs

Fuck Germany.

ETH requires C1 german proficiency at the bachelor level, only some courses are offered in english and I assume it's like that at most other swiss universities aswell.
