What Other Universities do |
You can study at a German university or school
|
Most universities in Berlin are German and require German language proficiency. Others may be schools offering undergraduate and postgraduate programmes via collaborations with external universities. |
Provide less personal student support
|
Compared to Arden University, you may not get as many opportunities to meet with staff members who are passionate about your success. |
Give you basic online resources
|
As one of the UK’s leading specialists in higher education, we have more to offer in terms of your study experience and student resources compared to most other universities. |
Campus study mode
|
Most German universities propose full-time attendance of their courses, meaning it won’t be as easy for you to fit your studies around other commitments or work in Berlin while you study. |
Provide standard career development services
|
At other universities, you’ll have access to a range of career services, but Arden is unique in providing you with a designated study period each year focused on your employability and future career. |
