orientation week

for international

New country, new city, new language, new university

The beginning is exciting, but not always easy. That's why there is an orientation week for international students. Fulda students welcome you there and are available as tutorial assistants to answer any questions you may have about the start of programme: they go with you to the Municipal Immigration Office and the Citizens' Office or help you with matriculation and opening an account.

The orientation week is a fantastic opportunity to familiarise yourself with the campus, the city of Fulda and the surrounding area. You can also make your first contacts and get to know fellow students.
