Social counselling

Do you need guidance in the study jungle? Or are you looking for support to survive outside the lecture hall? Come to us – we will bring light into the darkness and find answers and solutions together. For special topics, such as legal issues or psychological stress, we can also put you in touch with the relevant specialist offices/contact persons. Our counseling services are free of charge and open to all students, prospective students and family members.

Main topics of social counseling:

  • Student jobs – What do I need to consider?
  • Studying and pregnancy/parenthood
  • Concerns of disabled and chronically ill students
  • Problems of foreign students
  • Broadcasting fee, semester contribution/semester ticket, health insurance
