I have returned from the Ausländeramt. It was so much clearer and easier than I had been worrying about.
The good news: I still have plenty of time to get everything in order (I need passport-style photos, German health insurance (apparently American insurance isn't good enough for them =P ), proof that I can support myself while in Germany, 60 EUR, and some sort of notification from the university).
The bad news: I have to get passport-style photos, because apparently the ones I brought from home weren't good enough.
The upside: they're only 6 EUR.
The downside: they're 6 EUR. =P
Not to mention that I have to pay ten times that just to be able to register with the stupid office. And then there's the damn health insurance. Grr, Germany. Though I guess there's probably a similar procedure for foreigners in any other country...except maybe Spain. I heard their immigration laws are really lax... Oh Europe, the land of contrasts.
