For enrolment at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, it is obligatory for you to have a health insurance that is valid in Germany (§ 5 para. 1 no. 9 sentence 1 SGB V).
Your health insurance must be confirmed / approved by an electronic notification from a German public health insurance provider to Bauhaus-Universität Weimar (so called “M10 notification”).
Without the electronic notification by a German public health insurance, you cannot be enrolled.
