Helping you get started and settle in

First of all: Welcome!

All of us at the Studierendenwerk extend a warm welcome to our international guests in Kaiserslautern. For many it is the first longer stay in a new country, maybe even the first time away from family and friends.

Initial orientation guides and tips about regulations and living habits in a new country are particularly helpful.
