Visit your dentist, eye doctor and family

physician for a complete check up. Inform the International Office of your Univ. about your arrival date, time etc. well in advance. Pack a small medicine kit in consultation with

your family physician for minor ailments and illnesses

Keep the phone nos of any known contacts in Germany handy.

Make copies of all the documents and certificates you are carrying and leave a set at home.

Have a hair cut before leaving as it is pretty expensive in Germany, as much as 10 Euro for a sitting

Write down and keep handy, important phone numbers of contacts and Bank A/c numbers of your parents

The above list hopefully indicates most of the items that you may be in immediate requirement for the first few weeks until you settle down well at Germany. This is just a guideline to help you pick and choose the necessary things

Exercise caution and wisdom to give priority to the items that are a basic necessity, in accordance with the Regulation of the Airlines for the weight of Baggage, to avoid last minute tension and unnecessary expenditure
