How to overcome
exam anxiety
I was interested in
fi nding out about a
gap year abroad after
graduation and learned
a lot about how to go
about organising and
fi nancing one. I can
highly recommend the
fair.
Jost Burhop, student
I really like this fair because it highlights
so many opportunities that I didn’t know
existed, and because so many countries are
represented.

“We returned
from studyworld 2015
with a very positive feeling. We
want to thank you for the excellent
organisation before and during the
event. The event was very successful
for us, the interest in our study
programmes was very high. We will use
this great opportunity next year again
to present our international study
programmes as well as our
MA courses.
“I had the
opportunity to meet
a lot of well-qualifi ed and
talented students, who I
think would be a good fi t for
our university. We’re really
pleased with the result.”
“Our university
has attended for the
second year in a row and
we have been very satisfi ed
with the organisation of the
event and the visitor profi le. We
found many useful contacts,
attracted a number of applicants
to our English-taught
bachelor’s programmes and
look forward to joining
again in 2016.”
