International students can also obtain information and advice from the Welcome Service Center of the Stuttgart economic hub.

They can help you with any questions you may have about: arriving, living and working in Esslingen, learning German, looking for work, official recognition of foreign school and vocational qualifications, staying and studying here, and finding accommodation.

Several events are organised, for example:
"Welcome Club International Students" and “Your start in Stuttgart and the region -  info session for first semester international students".

You can also obtain advice from the Welcome Center in Stuttgart or Esslingen. On one Wednesday afternoon a month, the Welcome Center in Esslingen provides advice without the need to make an appointment.
