There is a wide range of support services for international students at German higher education institutions, especially in the introductory phase of studies, but also over the course of the study programmes. However, these are often only used by a relatively small proportion of international students, and their willingness to participate decreases over time. Consideration should therefore be given to how international students can be motivated more effectively to make greater use of the existing support services or how their benefits can be better explained to them. This applies especially to language courses, not only at the beginning of the study program, but throughout the entire course of study. This could, for example, prevent international students from failing to write their final thesis due to language problems
Could someone mention examples of these wide range of support services? I am someone interested in studying in Germany, and till date I have not heard of any support services as such till date.
