Welcome to Freiburg!
When you begin with your study or your semester abroad in Freiburg, you will encounter a new country, a new culture, a foreign language and another education system. The first step is never easy…
Various questions will go through your mind such as „What kind of paperwork do I have to complete?“, „How can I organize my study or my timetable?“, „Where can I go grocery shopping?“ etc.…
We from the International Club have someone to support you!
One of our Freiburg Buddies will accompany you and help you with all difficulties. We aim to make you feel at home in the city and at the universities quickly after your arrival in Freiburg.
What can your Freiburg Buddy do for you?

Every international student who is going to start his or her study in Freiburg, no matter whether you are coming via an Erasmus+ program, an exchange program via partner universities or an degree-seeking study.
