Switching from school to university is an essential step in your life. As a student, you will enjoy more freedom and flexibility than you are accustomed to from your school days.

You may move away from home, pursue new leisure activities and, ideally, form lifelong friendships. In this respect, your time as a student will have a formative influence over your whole life.

We want to explain to you on this page why studying at the PFH Private University of Applied Sciences Göttingen is different from studying at a state university and what advantages of studying at the PFH gives your child.
The problem for many parents wishing to assist their child in choosing a suitable course of study is that they studied when there were not only much fewer courses on offer, but the qualifications were called Diplom and Magister or State Examination. For many, the currently applicable study regulations involving bachelor's and master's qualifications are new or need explanation.
