Best Answer
We don't know much about your situation but based on what little information you provided, you may not have any effective recourse. An appeal, even when you have a solid claim, is long and complicated. And you do not appear to have any grounds for appeal. Legally, you're not entitled to a short-stay visa and the consulate is under no obligation to provide anything else than this boilerplate justification.
A lack of financial means as a young adult is bound to look like a red flag to the consulate, even if you have a host or sponsor to cover your expenses. In that context, being a student can actually play against you: it means you have less binding you to your current place of residence and fewer reasons to go back there. The system is not designed to give everybody an opportunity to get a visa.
