They put me on the wait list, but (understandably) prioritised people from less wealthy countries. It was an interesting experience because, as I said, I did not realise the context for the course and the test was almost like an interview to assess whether I should be able to enter the subsidised course. They asked me a lot if I was a tourist and what my partner does.
I think anyone can join the course, and I am unemployed, but it is intended for asylum seekers most of all.
For me it looked appealing for the level of interactivity in the learning process and the longer class times.
