Online Counseling

Academic Advising via Zoom

The Central Student Advisory Service provides information and advice to anyone with questions about studying - on this page you have the opportunity to book a fixed Zoom consultation appointment.

When?
- regularly on Tuesdays, 9-12 a.m.

- in some weeks additionally on Tuesdays, 3.30-5.30 p.m. and Thursdays, 4-6 p.m.

- please note, that on wednesdays, 2-4 p.m., we offer open consultation hours via Zoom

How long? A counseling appointment lasts 30 minutes.

How do I book an appointment? At the bottom of the German version of this page you will find our bookable dates. Clicking on "Anmeldung" will take you to the registration form for the respective date. If there is no registration button for an appointment, the appointment is already booked. Unfortunately, both the registration form and the confirmation by mail are only sent in German due to technical conditions.

In the registration confirmation we will send you the zoom link. Clicking on this link will take you to the waiting room of our Zoom consultation room. The counselor will then let you in at the beginning of your booked appointment. Attention: You will not receive a separate reminder - please make a good note of your date!

What do I do if I have not received a registration confirmation? If you have not received an email, please write to the Central Student Advisory Office stating which date you have booked.

Can I cancel my appointment? If you are prevented from attending on the date you booked, please cancel your appointment so that we can reschedule it. In the e-mail with the registration confirmation you will find a link to cancel your appointment. The link for cancelling reads "Stornieren".

Why do I have to specify a consulting topic ("Beratungsthema")? We need this information because we may prepare materials prior to the consultation that could be helpful during the consultation. Please note that we can only provide advice on certain consulting topics (see white box on the right.)

By the way: Our counseling is of course confidential and free of charge. We look forward to hearing from you!

Attention: New Zoom appointments are always released on Thursdays, 1 pm, for the following week. You can register for them on the German version of this page.

We know that the appointments are booked up very quickly and are pleased that our Zoom consultation is so well received! Unfortunately, we are unable to offer more appointments at this time.
