As the first year of study is often considered the most important for a student's success in higher education, we are offering a number of support services, activities, and free intensive courses to our newcomers for the academic year 2024-25.

One of the biggest challenges of the first year is the successful transition and adjustment of students from high school / Army to the University. At Frederick University, we want to ensure the academic success of each student. Therefore, in addition to the support services we provide to our students during their studies, we offer additional activities before the beginning of the academic year in order to help make the transition from Secondary to Higher Education be as smooth as possible.
