In addition, the International Office organises approximately 3–5 events per semester for international students, which may include excursions, day trips, or other cultural activities designed to help students get to know one another and exchange ideas. We are always eager to receive your questions, wishes and suggestions!

Buddy Program

The Liszt Buddy Program supports first-semester students (both international and German) as they settle into life in Weimar and adapt to daily life as students at the University of Music. Experienced students serve as mentors to new students during their first semester, answering questions about their studies, the university, and daily life. International students in particular benefit from cultural exchange, practical support, and new connections. As a Liszt Buddy, you’ll share your experiences and support new classmates with openness, reliability, and helpful tips.
