Guest Student Programme

It is possible to enrol at our university as a guest student. As a rule, it is only possible for guest students to attend lectures, e.g. in the field of musicology.

In particularly justified exceptional cases, interested students can also enrol for other types of courses (e.g. seminars). Enrolment for courses that take place as one-to-one lessons and courses in the field of chamber music is also only possible in individual cases.
