Social Affairs
For most students, studying is a time of upheaval, fundamental change and personal development. Changing life circumstances bring successes as well as unexpected difficulties. It can therefore happen that some people feel overwhelmed. This is completely normal! We are there for you with advice, information and help:
Social counselling
Do you have questions about jobs, social benefits or parenthood? Are you stuck on topics such as the broadcasting fee, semester ticket or health insurance? We can help you shed some light on the subject or, if necessary, put you in touch with the relevant specialist agencies! > Social counseling
Financial advice
We know that studying can be a challenging time – especially when it comes to financial issues. That’s why we offer you comprehensive support to improve your financial situation and make it easier for you to get through your studies. Our financial advisor will provide you with individual advice and practical tips to help you successfully complete your studies with financial security.
