Individual counselling

Do you have a topic that you would like to discuss more intensively? For example, on clarification, decision-making and solution processes? Then simply book an individual counselling session! Individual counselling sessions usually last up to 50 minutes. Depending on the topic, we will of course adapt the time to your needs and will also be happy to arrange a follow-up appointment.

Prospective students simply send us an e-mail and we will send you an appointment suggestion.

Group counselling

You don't know what to study? Or you know: it should be something to do with media. Or you've already started studying something and would like to change? Then you've come to the right place for virtual group counselling on the topic of study orientation and changing subjects.

In the one-hour video chat with the Student Advisory Service, prospective students can ask open questions about applying and studying at the HdM. The group chat allows several participants to ask questions, which we answer as student counsellors.

Specialist study counselling

The heads of the respective degree programmes (deans of studies) are responsible for more detailed advice on the individual degree programmes. You can find the contact persons on the websites of the individual degree programmes.
