First-year students are welcomed by the university, AStA and the City of Frankfurt at a large welcoming event and are given an overview of the services offered by the city and university that go beyond their own department and studies at the subsequent fair.

Among others, the libraries, the University Computer Center, the Student Service Center, the Career Service, the university communities (ESG, KHG and IHG), the Center for University Sports and Cultural Facilities of the City of Frankfurt as well as some selected partners of the university will be presenting themselves and offering a wide range of support for the start of student life.

As a small welcome gift, first-year students receive a Goethe bag.
