Start at Ansbach University of Applied Sciences

The International Student Advisory Service will organise orientation days for the coming winter semester 2021/22 in order to contribute to a successful start to studies for all foreign first-year students. The winter semester starts on October 1^st and the orientation days will probably take place in the last week of September. You will find more information on our website later.

The orientation days are not compulsory but participation is recommended. During these days, you will have the opportunity to make first friends, learn more about the city and the university, and receive valuable tips on studying, working and student life.

In addition, the student council at UAS Ansbach organises orientation events for all first-year students every year at the beginning of the winter semester. You are cordially invited to take part in these events as well. You will find more information later on our website or on the student council's website: https://fsan.de/
