The University of Göttingen wants to support refugees on their way to study at a German university. The advisory service and the guest student programme are intended to show participants their opportunities in the German education system and give them an insight into the everyday life of studying in Göttingen.
"What should I study in Germany?" "How can I continue my studies?" "When do I have to apply?" - The system in Germany is complicated. It can be difficult to find the right path alone. Come to us for counseling. Together, we make a plan.
