First steps at Freie Universität Berlin

In a nutshell: How to have a successful start at Freie Universität Berlin

Since all official university emails will be sent to your official FU email address and certain email inquiries will be sorted out by the system if they are not sent from an FU address, this step is particularly important. Moreover, your Freie Universität-Account gives you access to various platforms, features and services. A full list of those can be found here: What is the Freie Universität-account?
