Services for Enrolled International Students

On these sites, we would like to provide some information for enrolled international students in terms of the organisation of their studies at the University of Cologne and concerning life in Cologne in general. The information is appropriate for:

• international students in undergraduate/state examination courses of study (Bachelor, Staatsexamen) and Master students
• international doctoral students (for further information especially for doctoral students please consult this site as well)
• short term students worldwide (partner universities, ERASMUS)
• international scholarship holders

• your residence permit and extension of the residence permit at the Foreigners Registration Office ("Studienverlaufsbescheinigung")
• confirmations for authorities in the home country (Embassy, Military Service, scholarships etc.)
• working besides the studies
• financing your studies
• academic planning
• individual problems 
• the International Students Associations
• offers of the International Office

Due to current events, our personal consultation hours are cancelled until further notice. However, we are at your disposal via our contact form for international students.

We now also offer the possibility of a digital consultation hour via "Zoom" (Tuesdays from 10 am - 12.30 pm). Please register here.
