Individual consultations
We take time to discuss your options in detail.
In our individual consultations, we take time to discuss your options in detail and provide you with more comprehensive advice than in the drop-in consultation sessions. Please arrange an appointment with us.
As your central point of contact at FAU, we are on hand to provide prospective students and students already studying at FAU with advice on starting to study at university, individual questions that may arise whilst studying and career options after graduating.
Our main areas of advice cover:
- Support in choosing which degree program to study
- Information on subject combinations
- Advice on application procedures
- Advice on problems during your studies
- Advice on changing focus or subject
- Advice for students with a disability or chronic illness
- Advice and a risk assessment for pregnant students
- Support for starting out on a career from the Career Service
All our services are free of charge and voluntary. It goes without saying that the advice we provide is confidential and neutral. The focus is on you and the issue you want to discuss.
Due to high volume in enquiries, their processing might require more time than usual. Thank you for your understanding.
