Testimonies
Leheng Kassem, from Syria, DSH3, will study medical technology in Hanover.
"I always recommend my friends to participate in the Pre-Study Programme, as it is the ideal preparation for the German language and studies. I was able to establish contacts with former participants and they gave us advice on what to pay attention to at the beginning of the studies and how to deal with problems."
Sahar Alkharsa, from Syria, DSH 2, now studying Intercultural Communication and European Studies
"The University of Applied Sciences Fulda offers so many opportunities and I knew that this was my chance to make my dream come true, to study for a Master's degree. The coordination and organisation of the classes, trying to always support and motivate the students through additional parties, movies, meetings and many other activities such as the Buddy Program where you can simply improve your language more."
Pedram Alaei, from Iran, DSH 2, scholarship holder at Fulda University of Applied Sciences in the Pre-Study Programme, will be training at EDAG as a technician/product designer in the field of mechanical engineering.
"I decided to take part in the Pre-Study Programme in order to get used to the atmosphere at the university, and because the Fulda University of Applied Sciences offers many other opportunities for participants in addition to the German course. For example, one has access to the university library and one has direct contact with German students through the Buddy programme."
