Buddy coordinators

Are you interested in our buddy program?

Or are you already registered, but your buddy's Email address isn't working?

For those and other questions, our buddy coordinators are more than happy to help. They take care about the mentoring, edit your application and coordinate the allocation itself.

The Buddy program is initiated in order to help exchange students during their arrival here in Germany. VISUM coordinates the allocation of one exchange student and one German student who will help with the first steps such as enrolling at uni, opening a bank account etc. Moreover, the German buddy ought to be a reliable person to contact throughout the whole semester whenever the exchange student has some questions.
And who knows, maybe a long lasting friendship will start from here.

Jenny is our Buddy Coordinator this semester and whenever you have questions, regarding the buddy program, don't hesitate to contact her via email to buddymatching@visum-mannheim.de.

Jenny and the whole VISUM-Team hope you'll enjoy the semester here in Germany and that you might find a great friend in your German buddy. See you around at one of our buddy events!
