Contact points for questions about studying
Here we have listed the most important contact persons at the university and the University of Applied Sciences on the topic of study organization.
University of Koblenz
The university offers students many orientation events in their first semester. The orientation phase helps new students find their way into everyday student life and get to know the campus. These events are very important for making initial connections and getting to know fellow students. After these orientation days, the following contact points will help you with questions and problems:
Koblenz Student Office
The Koblenz Student Affairs Office is the first point of contact for all questions about studying. Here you can get answers to basic questions about the range of courses on offer, the application procedure, enrolment, re-registration and exmatriculation. There is no special processing here. This is the responsibility of the specialized institutions at the University of Koblenz.
General Student Advisory Service Koblenz
As the general counselling office of the University, the Student Counselling Service is there to help you find a degree program and organize your studies in such a way that your individual knowledge, abilities and personal strengths are promoted and your study and career goals are achieved.
Student Secretariat
The Student Secretariat coordinates the application procedure and is responsible for the allocation of study places, enrolment, re-registration and exmatriculation. Detailed processing takes place here.
Timetable advice
Creating a timetable can sometimes be quite time-consuming. Individual timetable advice can be useful, especially in the teaching degree programme, due to the wide variety of subject combinations, in order to make coordination easier. If you have any questions about your timetable or have problems creating it, don't hesitate to make use of this counselling service!

In addition to the info page, you can get to know the respective department and campus at the Kickoff Camp.

Other events help to make initial contacts and get to know fellow students. Questions that arise after the Kickoff Camp can be addressed to the following contact points:

Studying with a child
Studying with a child is possible! - With the right support, when, where and how you need it!
The Studierendenwerk tries to support students with children in the best possible way and offers numerous, flexible services for childcare, counselling and meals.
Counselling
We advise student parents (and parents-to-be) on all aspects of studying with a child and answer questions such as:
- How can I organise childcare?
- How does everyday study life work with a child?
- How can I finance myself?.
Here you can find more information on counselling for parents (and parents-to-be) who are studying
Childcare
Three day-care centres directly on campus - close to the lecture hall and with flexible drop-off and pick-up times - ensure that studying with a child is not an even greater challenge.

Catering - Kids for free
In the Studierendenwerk refectories, children up to the age of 10 eat for free when accompanied by a student parent. All you need is the Kids for Free card, which you can get in our service offices.
