Academic Welcome Program (AWP) for highly qualified refugees

As a public university, the Goethe University contributes to the solution of social, political, economic and cultural problems. With the Academic Welcome Program (AWP) for highly qualified refugees, the university creates a framework that supports the integration of highly qualified refugees of all nationalities in Germany. Through access to German language courses and university education as well as networks and university infrastructure, Goethe-University provides perspectives for refugees and enables exchange and participation. Participants in the AWP do not receive student status and can therefore not claim the services that are only subsidized for students (BAföG, places in dorms, university sports, etc.).
