International Host Program

an initiative organized by students

The International Host Program was founded by German Students who had the opportunity to participate in similar programs during their stay abroad. We want you , the international students in Tübingen, to get into contact with German students or families during your stay in Tübingen.

Your host student or your host family will help you when questions or problems arise during your stay. You can go together to the movies, theatres or the famous Kneipen (pubs) in Tübingen or even make trips to the attractions around Tübingen. This is a "no strings attached" program, neither you nor your host is obliged to take part in any activity. This is not an accommodation or language program, its purpuse is just to meet people from Germany, Europe and the rest of the world.

Our goal is to lessen your culture shock through contacts to German students and families and help you to understand the culture and the way of life in Germany.

Working closely together with the Department of Academic Exchange the International Host Program offers a variety of activities throughout the academic year.

How to join this program?

With the enrollment forms for the University of Tübingen you will receive a form to register for the International Host Program. In Tübingen you can get this form at the Department of Academic Exchange and register immediately. As soon as possible you'll receive the address of your host by mail. And of course: this program is offered free of charge .

Thank you for your interest in our program. We are looking forward to meeting you at one of our activities.
