Hochschule für Musik, Theater und Medien Hannover

Welcome to the website of the International Office of the HMTMHs' incomings! We are very pleased that you are interested in studying with us or taking part in an ERASMUS exchange here.

Before applying, I should be able to answer the following questions for myself: Does the range of courses offered at HMTMH match my degree program, and what particularly interests me about the university and the country? To apply for an Erasmus+ exchange at HMTMH, I must...

1. be enrolled at one of HMTMH's partner universities.

2. check the compatibility of the courses offered at your home university with those at the HMTMH.

3. beware of the application period: March 1st to March 31.

After the application deadline, I may receive a delayed response; this is normal. Since the general entrance exams at the beginning of June must be taken into account, places are limited, and therefore the admission capacities must first be checked, it takes some time for the notification of acceptance to arrive. If I wish to accept the place at HMTMH, I inform my university and the International Office at HMTMH, after which I receive an Acceptance Letter.

To ensure that I can settle in well linguistically and socially and truly enjoy my ERASMUS+ stay, the HMTMH offers two useful programs: Firstly, I can attend a free German course during the lecture period, which gives me a first opportunity to get to know the German language and culture, but also to make contacts with other students from other countries.

Furthermore, there is the option of registering for the Study Buddy Program , where I will be paired with a student from the HMTMH (Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media). Together, we can engage in language exchange and explore Hanover, either as a pair or in a group. The Study Buddy Program offers interesting and fun events each semester to help you get to know the city and other students even better.

Further events are offered by the "esn" (Erasmus Social Network) , the largest European student association. These events, such as karaoke, museum visits, hikes, ice skating, etc., attract not only students from the Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media (HMTMH), but also students from Leibniz University Hannover (LUH) and various other universities. The atmosphere is pleasant and lively, the people are generally open and very welcoming, and it offers a great opportunity to connect with others.
