Living close to campus
Two halls of residence run by the Studierendenwerk Ost-Niedersachsen are directly adjacent to our campus. There is also a wide range of affordable accommodation for our students in Suderburg and the nearby Hanseatic town of Uelzen. The offer ranges from shared rooms to single rooms and flats.
Learning coaching and studying with neurodivergence
Learning at school and at university are different. You will therefore also get to know our learning coach in the first semester. If you have any uncertainties or questions, especially on topics such as compensation for disadvantages and studying with neurodivergence, please contact Yvonne Neuse before you start your studies.
