Goethe University Frankfurt

Examinations usually take place at the end of the semester during the examination phase (the weeks after the lectures end).

A variety of intensive German language courses for exchange students is offered prior to the semester.

Exchange students may apply for accommodation in a students’ residence hall. In general, there is, unfortunately, a major shortage of rooms. That is why only part of the students can be accommodated in dorms. We recommend applying as early as possible for a room. As far as private accommodation is concerned students should also take into consideration to not only stay in the city centre but also in the near surroundings.

A payment of the semester contribution (appr. EUR 360) needs to be paid by all students. The semester contribution is a social contribution to the Student Body Committees and give students free use of public transportation within the area of the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund.
