I have been a student at IU since 2019 when I started my part time bachelors degree in Business Administration. I looked at various online universities before deciding to go with IU, because I felt like the information provided and the test month gave me a clear and transparent perspective on the programme and the university itself. I like about IU that there always seems to be movement there. IU is always trying to improve the content of the modules and the team is really listening to the recommendations of the students regarding quality, broadness, transparency etc. of the material provided. For each modules there is a script that contents all you need to know for the exam from the second you start the module, a good set up I think. While you work through the script you can take part in tutor sessions where you can discuss your questions with the tutor and other students, which is quite helpful. And if you really want to get to the bottom of the script you can discuss it in the course community. Other students can give you advice on how to approach the theory or share exam experiences. All in all IU has created a set up where you have loads of opportunities to prepare yourself for the exam, just by yourself or in a community setting. Communication wise I found IU always very approachable and quick to response to emails, within a few days, considering that around 100.000 students are currently enrolled in an IU programme. I always choose to do my exams online and while at first it is quite different from what one normally is used to, I grew fond of it very quickly. You can book your exam appointment almost at any time of day whenever you want and if you take the online exam you can even change the exam appointment up till 24 hours prior to the exam. As someone that has always had a very busy work life I had to take advantage of that quite often I have to admit. I really like this option though because it gives you so much flexibility and the second you are done with your exam you close your laptop and you take part in your every day life again without having to drive anywhere, waiting on someone, trying to concentrate right before the exam between all the chitchat and without any stressful traffic beforehand. And if there are complications during the exam, it gets dealt with quite quickly. One time I got thrown out of my exam session because of a technical issue and I was afraid it would count as a fail, but in that case the system automatically sends you an email with a link so you can go back to the exam. I didn't see the email at first so the company called me to make sure I could continue my exam. I really liked how the situation was handled. It was really the only time I had an issue in 4 years, but it is good to know that in case something happens it will get handled. All in all, there are always things to improve, mechanisms that don't always work as well as they should and recommendations that should be followed, but I really feel like IU is always trying to listen and address the issues one may have.

IU International University offers both online and on-campus studies, which is a great option for students who need flexibility in their schedules. I enrolled in the online program for a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and I must say that my study experience at IU International University has been amazing so far.

I was particularly impressed by the technological tools utilized in the online program, including the user-friendly online platform called MyCampus and the IU Learn app. IU International University also offers a variety of resources such as online libraries and study groups on platforms like Microsoft Teams, Facebook, and WhatsApp to aid students in their academic pursuits. Additionally, CourseFeed provides students with easy access to live lectures, group communication with classmates in the same course, and relevant course information all in one place. The professors also leverage technology to enrich the learning experience by integrating videos, interactive quizzes, and online discussions into the coursework. As an individual with personal obligations, such as a full-time job and a family, IU International University has provided me with the means to manage these commitments alongside my studies. The online program's flexibility has allowed me to learn at my own pace and on my own schedule, affording me the ability to complete unit tests, assignments, and discussions during moments like lunch breaks or even at 3 AM. Moreover, I am not constrained as to where or when I take exams, as I have the autonomy to schedule them at my own convenience, whether at home or while on vacation. Furthermore, the university offers additional support services like academic advisors and career counseling to aid students in balancing both their personal and academic lives. Overall, I highly recommend this university for anyone looking to pursue higher education, whether it be through online or on-campus studies. The program material is top-notch, the professors are excellent, and the flexibility of the program has allowed me to achieve my academic goals while managing my personal commitments.

I enrolled in the Computer Science Bachelor's degree program at IU in February 2023 as a full-time international online student. My journey with IU has been nothing short of exceptional, exceeding my expectations in every way. Discovering IU through bachelorsportal was a stroke of luck. From the moment I connected with the university, it was clear that they valued both my time and my education. The admission process was remarkably smooth and efficient. I submitted my documents, and , the admission team responded promptly and maintained clear communication throughout. Not only did they swiftly review my application and awarded me a generous scholarship. Once i got the access to the online campus, I was guided through the platform with instructional videos that ensured I could navigate comfortably. I was given a link to a welcome video, and I had access to all of my required study materials, as well as their library. This flexibility allowed me to tailor my learning experience to my preferences, and I've never felt constrained by rigid schedules. One of the standout features of IU is their exceptional responsiveness. I was really impressed by how quickly professors and students responded when I contacted them. The professors were especially important for my success. They know their stuff and are really friendly. They're always there to help with questions and have made my learning experience much better. They are great at creating a strong online student community. Even though i'm in a different continent, connecting with others is easy. Being able to replay the recorded live sessions has really helped me understand tough topics of some modules too. As my first semester is wrapping up, I'm really thankful for IU's amazing online learning setup. I get to study my own way, and there are so many resources available. Professors and classmates are always there to help. IU has gone above and beyond what I expected, changing how I see online education.

Ich habe als Studienberater bei der IU gearbeitet und kann nur jedem, egal ob MA oder Bewerber/in von dieser Hochschule abraten! Hier wird im dualen Studium leichtfertig mit der Zukunft junger Leute umgegangen! Es werden Studiengänge beworben, die noch nicht akkreditiert sind, es keine Professoren gibt oder einem erhebliche Folgekosten entstehen (Und auch nicht darüber aufgeklärt wird). Junge motivierte Abiturienten dienen dazu, durch Initiativbewerbungen Kooperationen aufzubauen und somit das System zu finanzieren. Dabei wird auf quantitative Bewerbungen gesetzt und nur die guten Kandidaten werden unterstützt und somit vielen falsche Hoffnungen auf einen Studienplatz gemacht (Ist auch anders bei der Anzahl von Bewerbern und der Unternehmenspolitik nicht möglich - Kein Vorwurf an die Studienberater). Die Studienberater werden dabei stark ausgenutzt. Die Campusdirektion schafft ein Klima der Angst, wo man auch mal bei einer schlechten NPS Bewertung von der Führungskraft angeschrien wird. Obwohl die Führung regelmäßig nicht nur durch Inkompetenz glänzt, sondern auch gerne mal das Glas hebt, wird diese, auch bei der enorm hohen Fluktuation der MA, nicht ausgetauscht. Darüber hinaus bekommen die Studienberater einen frechen, auf zwei Jahre befristeten Vertrag aufgedrückt (Wird in den Gesprächen nicht kommuniziert - der liegt dann so im Briefkasten :D). Zudem variieren die so Gehälter stark, dass das Grundgehalt einfach mal bis zu 6K bei der gleichen Tätigkeit variieren kann (Das Grundgehalt kann dabei wie bei einem Briefträger ausfallen, wenn man schlecht verhandelt :D). Beim Bonus werden dann zusätzlich ziemlich intransparente und nicht abgesprochene unfaire Regelungen getroffen, dass man sich jedes mal wundert, wie sehr sie einen bei den hohen Umsätzen die man erzielt, über den Tisch ziehen! Bei dieser Hochschule geht es ausschließlich nur ums Geld, obwohl man eine soziale Verantwortung trägt! Traurig!

My first semester at IU has ended, and I d like to share my experience. Background: I'm an online international Computer Science student. I don't speak German, but I'm learning it thanks to the IU German course. One aspect that stands out is the availability of student offices. Whenever I had an issue or questions about my studies, I called them directly or sent an email and always had friendly, comprehensive, and quick support. Furthermore, as a half-time student, and half-time worker, the flexible study pace strikes a remarkable balance, allowing rigorous learning without overwhelming students. I can work during the day, study late at night, and even take exams at any time to suit my schedule. The university values a holistic education, encouraging extracurricular activities and personal development alongside academics. I received help and insight while crafting my resume from the career office and could attend webinars weekly. In addition, the university shared many exciting resources on topics like AI ethics on their social media, such as youtube or LinkedIn. The integration of online tools like Synthea has been a game-changer. It gives a new and modern way of learning using AI with a Socratic approach that combines well with the coursebook and teachers' videos. Given my work experience in Computer Science, the courses' content is thoughtfully curated to align with industry trends and real-world applications. The material is relevant, practical, and easily understandable. Moreover, I've connected with students worldwide and got the opportunity to register for a dual degree with LSBU. As I reflect on my journey so far, I'm grateful for the opportunities the university has provided. I am willing to continue this academic and personal growth journey.

I found IU the best university for Online study. IU has unique and new concept of study which gives every student a great deal of freedom, such as he can join the university any time all over the year, flexible exam timing as he can give exam whenever he gets time and feels prepared, Myriad of study programs available to choose from, Blended learning means anyone can do one semester online and other on campus, Anyone can take admission with one month trial period, IU has a great reputation as it is the Germany largest Private University with more than 100 thousand student enrolled, IU is so economical compared to other private universities. Furthermore IU course content are updated regularly and I personally had this experience as I have seen courses revised regularly on my study portal. Which means that IU cared on quality and is inline with the current rapidly changing technological advancement. Additionally , I want to tell you that I am a working professional with more than 10 years of International experience and particularly last 8 years I am working in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and has a YouTube Channel with more than 10 thousand subscribers. So my schedule is so busy.I wanted to enhance my technical knowledge so I researched a lot of universities all over the world and found IU which mostly satisfied my needs. I have taken admission in Master of Engineering with specialization in Engineering Management. This course is new and has course content like IOT and Industry 4.0 which is the trending courses of new generation and has a great scope in it all over the world. Lastly, I would recommend everyone to start a career with IU and you will definitely agree with me once you start your course.

One of the best decision i have ever made in year 2021 was to enroll at IU International University of Applied Sciences, the effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic was an eye opener to many students as well as myself, as the demand for a distance learning (Online) kicked in. I was previously enrolled at a traditional campus based learning University before i heard about IU and their study flexibility, i didnt believe it at first that a University could allow a student to study at his or her own pace and with a flexible study pattern. But upon talking to one of their study consultant i knew immediately that i was destined to study at IU, i was offered admisison within days of my application and the shocking part was that i was offered a whoping 75% scholarship for my chosen program. It sound too good to be true really, untill i got my admission letter which confirmed the scholarship status and approval. The study flexibility being provided to students by IU is really amazing. I am allowed to preview a course materials and structure even before registering for the course, and i am also allowed to select the course of my choice which is a brilliant move by IU. They offer both campus based and Online model of study and you can always switch between the two model which is also a fantastic move by IU. The instructors at IU are world class professionals and expert in their related field with years of professional experiences. The university also organizes programs to better equip their student with the real life experience. To me IU is a University structured around student needs. Its a Student oriented University.

I will switch to On-campus in Germany in an year. Can't wait. Best decision ever. I would highly recommend to study here.

Ich studiere Marketing im Bachelor an der IUBH und war bisher eigentlich alles in allem zufrieden. Die IUBH erneuert oft Kurse um up to date zu bleiben, bis dato hatte ich keinerlei Probleme damit. Des Weiteren führt die Hochschule auch neuere Studiengänge ein. Da ein Wechsel zu einem neuen Studiengang für mich unbezahlbar war (über 1500€), habe ich das gelassen. Was mich jedoch jetzt sehr stört ist, dass die IUBH auf ihrer Website nun mit einem neuen Curriculum des Studiengangs Marketing wirbt. Die Kurse werden ab dem 15.01.2020 angepasst und es werden einige neuere, zeitgemäßere Kurse angeboten. Die IUBH hat also erkannt, dass der bisherige Marketing Studiengang veraltete Inhalte besitzt und hat daraufhin reagiert. Nun könnte man meinen, dass bisherige Studenten ein Recht auf neue Inhalte haben und einen kostenlosen Wechsel zu diesen neuen Marketing Studiengang haben sollten. Aber nein, auch dieser Wechsel wird unverhältnismäßig viel kosten! 290€ Wechselgebühr + 60€ pro ECTS Point der Leistungen, die im alten Curriculum abgeschlossen wurden, die jedoch nicht mehr im neuen Curriculum vorkommen. Die IUBH wirbt mit Flexibilität, aber nimmt ihre aktuellen Studenten so aus. Ist ja nicht so, dass wir monatlich genug Geld zahlen. Ich verstehe, dass hier einige Prozesskosten entstehen, aber in dem Maß ist es einfach nur lächerlich. Ich hoffe, dass die IUBH sich diesen Schritt noch einmal gründlichst überlegt, denn ich bin definitiv nicht die einzige Studentin die extrem enttäuscht ist.

Am currently doing robotics engineering at IU, and am in my 4th semester (online). My experience so far is brilliant, at first studying online was a bet confusing but I contacted and booked appointments many times with the study coaches which are very respectful and well trained who assisted me with time scheduling, handling stress, and they also responded to my inquiries regarding different topics such as elective courses and transferring to campus. Additionally, tutors answer promptly to all questions on the course material through teams and have one or more weekly Q&A sessions. I have never had a negative tutoring experience; they are all friendly and respectful and considerate. Robotics is not at all a simple major, but the course material is excellently illustrated in the course’s books, videos, and IU Learn app, which has a plenty of awesome features and quizzes at the end of each lesson. In addition, there are unit quizzes to test your understanding on the dashboard. A final exam (written exam, written assignment, or oral assignment) must be passed in order to pass a course. The exam office stuff are really helpful and quick in replying to emails, usually, exam results are available between one day to six weeks after the exam. I am extremely pleased and grateful that I chose IU since the university is very flexible, especially if you are working. And I'm quite satisfied with my online learning experience, which IU has made a lot simpler.

Die Uni ist einfach leider nicht zu empfehlen für die, die hier vorhaben Architektur zu studieren. Ich möchte die Uni an sich nicht schlecht reden. Dennoch will ich denen, die sich für das Studium interessieren davor warnen, denn auf die Uni brauch man sich in solchen Fällen nicht verlassen. Ich bin im 3. Semester gewesen, als wir erfahren haben, dass das Studium, bzw. der daraus resultierende Bachelor nicht kammerfähig und somit offiziell nicht anerkannt ist. Leider wird man hier von der Uni mit Worten, wie "wir arbeiten dran" und "es sind Gespräche am laufen" vertröstet. Nur ist hier interessant, dass die Bundesarchitektenkammer noch gar nicht so lang her geschrieben hat, das Gespräche mit der iU momentan nicht laufen, bzw. auch nicht geplant sind. Auch wenn ich hier die Antworten auf die Bewertungen durchlese merke ich immer wieder, wie viele teile hier aus Mails sind, mit denen uns die Uni auch schon vertrösten wollte. Es gibt so viele Sachen, die hier nicht richtig laufen. Manchmal hat man das Gefühl, das die rechte Hand nicht weiß, was die linke tut und andersrum genau das selbe. Hier wird einfach viel zu viel versprochen, wobei man am Ende leider doch enttäuscht wird. Mir ist klar, dass die Uni erst relativ am Anfang mit dem Studiengang Architektur steht. Dann soll man aber auch so transparent und fair mit den Studenten oder angehenden Studenten umgehen, wie sie es verdient haben. Einfach nur enttäuschend.

Bin dabei mich für ein Duales Studium zu bewerben. 1. Fail - Einladung zum Bewerbungsgespräch und Praxispartnersuche stellt sich heraus als Massenbesichtigung und selben Inhalten wie in dem Online Zoommeeting. 2. Fail - Zoommeeting wurde gesagt die monatlichen Kosten liegen bei 300-400 Euro, vor Ort hieß es 700 - 800 Euro Studiengebühren im Monat. 3. Fail - ich soll eine Liste anfertigen mit Unternehmen, Ansprechpartnern, Nummern und und und. Ich habe bereits alle Dokumente sowie Lebenslauf hochgeladen. Nun soll ich das erneut tun aber in der Vorlage einfügen. Jetzt bekomme ich keine Antwort auf meine e Mails. Wieso solche intransparenz? Ist das Studium dann auch so ein riesen Chaos wie der Beginn der Organisation? Wofür zahlt man so ein schweingegeld, wenn jetzt schon falsche Mails zugeschickt werden, keiner erreichbar ist und man erzählt man hilft bei der Praxispartnersuche und letztendlich MUSS man selber Listen schreiben? Das ist doch die Arbeit von einem Account Manager aka. Vertrieblern oder sollen neu Studenten neue Geldeintreibende Unternehmen ranbringen? Ich find das Konzept klasse aber die Organisation ist einfach nur ne richtig fette Katastrophe. Das sage ich nicht als 18 jährige Abiturienten sondern als 27 jährige ausgebildete, berufserfahrene. Mal sehen WANN sich jemand meldet. Hoffentlich dann auch die richtige copy paste e mail...

As a current student, I am thrilled to share my review IU, which has provided an exceptional online learning experience. First and foremost, the online learning platform is top-notch. The user-friendly interface, coupled with the engaging course materials and assignments, makes for a seamless virtual learning experience. The professors are also very knowledgeable and accessible, ensuring that students receive the best possible education. Moreover, the university has done an excellent job of providing additional resources to support students' online learning experience. The library resources are extensive, and the technical support team is always available to help with any technical difficulties. Although the online learning experience has been fantastic, I can't wait to go to the university campus. I am excited to meet my peers in person and participate in on-campus activities. The campus facilities are amazing, and there are numerous extracurricular activities to participate in. Overall, I would highly recommend IU to anyone looking for a great hybrid (online and offline) learning experience. The university has exceeded my expectations, and I can't wait to see what the on-campus experience will be like.

  • Vincenzo Pignetti Cimmino

I’m an online international student at IU. I applied when I was 16 years old through the Cambridge A level pathway to the Business Administration course. IU it’s actually the first online university in the world to offer their student a pathway to start their bachelor studies and finish their high school education at the same time, as they are a Cambridge International School. The learning platform it’s unique, flexible, full of quizzes and concise videos, accessible from any device (also phone) and they also well integrated AI to it. Professors are really specialized in their sector, this is a big pro of the universities of applied sciences. Support is super fast and functional, they always help you out and reply to emails in a couple hours, maximum a day. Partnerships are good, especially the one with the London South Bank University double degree (accessible for most of the courses). I recommend to send all previous achievements when applying because IU take good care of the student’s experiences and widely recognize them. About the accreditation, IU is a state-accredited university, that ensures the best education quality and recognition of the degree worldwide for international students.

I went to the campus to help my friend enrolling, so we went to the appointment an hour ahead of time. After registering at the reception, we were told to copy the originals and then wait until she was called which we did. 1 1/2 hours later without being called we asked what the issue was. Turned out they forgot to put her on the list to be called. At the same time they canceled her appointment and said "we're finishing with enrolments now, sorry!" (what?! Also 45 minutes before the official closing time.) and told us to come back in the morning. A different guy arrvied for his appointment at 10, waited for 7 hours and was told to go home and come back the next day and waited another 5 hours to be enrolled. Students pay over €10,000 to study at this school and have to wait 2 full days WITH AN APPOINTMENT to be enrolled? This organization is an absolute disgrace and you should be ashamed that this is the first experience that foreign students have after entering Germany for the first time. The Ausländerbehörde is better than this. And also, give me back my half vacation day I took for this...

  • Enah

I've been skeptical since the beginning, but the person who assisted me in the admissions process was reassuring. They were very accommodating until I signed up. At first, I thought the course was the problem, so I contacted them to shift to another program on the 2nd week of my trial. The next day, I realized that the teaching method didn't fit my learning style as I'm not a non-traditional student. I've decided to withdraw my study contract. (this is just purely based on my experience, it could be different for others) I got an email stating not to send another follow-up as they would get back to me in 7 days. (sent on March 18) It's been over a week, but still no updates. I wouldn't want to get charged as I responsibly requested to get withdrawn during the trial period. Please get back to me as soon as possible. Note to all who are going to enroll, their WhatsApp number can't help you once you become their student. You'll have to chase them through email - they're a bit unresponsive and would definitely not follow the given response timelines.

  • aamir ansari

Worst management ever. I have to email 100 times to get a response from them. They only email to ask for payment and fees other then that I have to wait for months to get a response. we cant visit office without any appointment, and appointments are maid by email only which again I have to wait for months to get a response. I have also waited long to get any documents for official purpose. when you call to office its a centralized office in Berlin and they only raise a ticket without answering your questions and they cant transfer the call to the concern person as well. There is a literally no inter-communication between different departments within the management. I communication between me and my study advisor was not communicated to the finance department and it took me 5 months to resolve all the issue and I have to providing proof of communication between us. The only good thing about this University for which I gave 1 star for are the professors. They have a group of very knowledgeable and professional team of professors.

  • Ayse Kilicoglu

UNSERIÖS NICHT ZU EMPFEHLEN Betrifft das Fernstudium: die Anmeldung zur Bachelorarbeit ist die reinste Katastrophe. Die Korrekturen laufen nicht seriös ab: Erstkorrektor betreut die Arbeit nicht zuverlässig (es fand lediglich kein Austausch statt) und lässt sich anschließend vom Zweitkorrektor manipulieren (selber zugegeben!). Ein Widerspruch kann erst in der Einsicht eingelegt werden: Termin erst in 6 Wochen bekommen!! Das Prüfungsamt hat kein offenes Ohr. Man erreicht die auch gar nicht! Auf die Mails wird langsam bis gar nicht reagiert. Problem: der Prof, der im Zweitversuch diesmal eine wahrhaftige Betreuung versprochen hatte - sagt nun die Betreuung nach dem eingelegten Widerspruch ganz ohne Begründung ab "möchte die Arbeit doch nicht begleiten" Andere Profs schreiben nicht zurück, verlangen Exposés aber geben dann keine Rückmeldung. Eine Bachelor Thesis Anmeldung kann nur von Profs gemacht werden - reinster Chaos!!! Bis zur Bachelorarbeit waren wir total zufrieden mit der IU

  • Vanessa Radtke

Die Hochschule ist ein absoluter Chaosverein. Zum Beispiel:Offiziell hätte mein Kurs am 23.11.2023 eine Prüfungsleistung (Präsentation) gehabt. In unserer WhatsApp-Studenten-Gruppe haben eine Hand voll eine Absage des Termins durch die Dozentin erhalten- ich bspw. Nicht. Ich hatte mich am Tag der Prüfung beim Prüfungsamt gemeldet wie es weiter geht und bis heute (29.11.2023) habe ich von Hochschulseite keine Info über den Sachverhalt erhalten .. Als Studentin hat man das Gefühl die Hochschule will nur mit den jungen Menschen Geld machen. Die Hochschule kostet 700-800 im Monat und für das Geld bekommt man definitiv nicht das, was man für das Geld erwarten könnte. Die IU macht es sich auch besonders einfach, da in meinem Wirtschaftsmathekurs beispielsweise 2500Studenten in ein Online-Webinar gesteckt wurden. Das ist eine reine Massenabfertigung. Würde ich nochmal die Wahl haben, dann würde ich auf gar keinen Fall zur IU gehen.

  • Lea Baumann

Meine Erfahrung für einen internen Bewerbungsprozess ist schlichtweg negativ, denn selbst als Recruiter - wird man von Recruitern/HR Angestellten der IU nicht wertgeschätzt, obwohl man theoretisch die gleiche Arbeit und Mühe sich macht und nach strengen Zeit-/Terminplänen arbeitet, und in unserem Job es nicht umsonst heißt „Zeit ist Geld“. Man sollte sich gründlich die Kommunikation von Seitens des Unternehmens überlegen, denn kurz vor einem Vorstellungsgespräch abzusagen, mit der Begründung, man hat VERGANGENE Woche bereits jemanden gefunden und man den/die Bewerber/in in Unwissenheit lässt und diese sich umsonst einen halben Urlaubstag nehmen musste - das ist nicht korrekt, schließlich möchte man das selbst auch nicht am eigenen Leib erfahren. Wenn selbst mögliche interne Mitarbeiter nicht wertgeschätzt werden, möchte ich nicht den anderweitigen Umgang im Alltagsgeschäft erfahren wollen.

  • Rohit Jamdade

It doesn't matter at what rank the university stands, until and unless they give their best service and education quality to their students. Universities must make sure that they will help their students until they achieve their end career goal. IU University is one of the best private universities in Berlin. It offers various english taught study programs. Staff at this university are very helpful, they will try their best to give you the best at every stage till you reach Germany (My admission counsellor Miss. Isabel cumbreno, really helped me to go through with all the admission and visa process. 10/10 for her).

Very bad university. They steal money from you and they don't support their students. I am quite shocked as to how unorganised and unaccommodating this university is. I have tried and voiced my complaints, suggested improvements, and even spoke with the academic director. Everything they promise is false. There is no one there to consistently support the students, and whenever I try to reach out to anyone in person, I am always turned away and told to write an email (which gets answered a month later, lol). I will never recommend this university to anyone in the future, as I have quite a bad impression of it. This university has disappointed me to the point where I am happily disenrolling. There are endless amounts of improvements that need to be done, and they clearly don't want to listen.

Ganz klar keine Empfehlung! Abgesehen von den klar gekauften Bewertungen, ist klar zu sehen dass dort viele Probleme herrschen. Sie antworten zwar, aber nie auf die wirkliche Problemlage, es sei unsere eigene Schuld(Bezug Stundenplan, Listen Übertragung, faire Prüfungsbewertung) - im Endeffekt wird nicht geholfen. Ich hatte bis jetzt nur mit den finanzteam normal sprechen können. Es läuft super viel falsch und du wirst damit komplett alleine gelassen - wenn nicht sogar ein rein gedrückt. Es sind nicht nur Erfahrungen von mir, viele viele andere Studenten bestätigten dies(es gibt einen großen Chat pro Studium). Positiv ist aber, dass du deine Prüfungen jederzeit ablegen kannst. Aber bei den vielen Änderungen, dann wieder nur beschränkt. Ich habe extra eine anderen Uni abgesagt, sehr schade!

To be very frank it may be a good online university but unfortunately i went to Berlin thinking that I'm a student and i can go speak to my advisor on the following day or at least find some guidance in the international students affairs. I arrived on the 25th of September and i went i was asked about my reason for visiting to the campus since i didn't recieve an email to have this honor, i was denied any questions even though i was clear I'm new in town with no friends or relatives just show me the baby steps. KEEP IN MIND THAT OUR SEMESTER STARTS 10TH OF OCTOBER AND THE FIRST AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT WITH THE ADVISOR IS 3 DAYS BEFORE HOW CAN I ESCAPE THIS NIGHTMARE FROM BOTH THE CITY ACCOMODATION SCAMS TO MY UNIVERSITY WHO CAN CARE LESS ABOUT NAVIGATING THE ONES ARE FUNDING IT

  • Aninha

Due to the very good marketing, I was very motivated and applied. Already at the student advisory service led in group, I noticed some things. After the shipment, of all the required documents, no one contacted me anymore (despite the promise). You also don't get any feedback on emails. The communication is horrible even between them, I got from different people the same email even though I already submitted one. It's so big "we'll help you find the practice partner" which is completely wrong. You are on your OWN, they don't even recommend a database to us! Maximum you get a call where it is asked if you already have one, if not, then continue to apply diligently or pay everything by yourself. This university is really a scam!!

Ich habe hier 3 Semester studiert als diese Hochschule noch IUBH hieß und in der Nähe des Alexanderplatzes lokalisiert war. Das Präsenzstudium war eigentlich ganz okey. Da ich dual studiert habe, musste ich mir einen Praxispartner suchen, was wirklich eine absolute Herausforderung war. Zum einen, weil die Hilfe von der Hochschule mehr als unterirdisch war und zum anderen, weil die Studiengebühren so hoch sind, dass du erstmal einen Arbeitgeber finden musst, der dir bei solch hohen Studienkosten noch ein angemessenes Gehalt zahlt. Schlussendlich habe ich dort mein Studium abgebrochen und habe mein Gesundheitsmanagement Studium woanders erfolgreich abgeschlossen (und das für die Hälfte der Studiengebühren).

  • Geeta C Mohan

My experience with IU so far has been very encouraging and purposeful. The admission process was quite smooth and the team was extremely supportive in providing the right information and guidance. There is merit scholarship available for Indian students. The University also provides a personal Study Coach to every student pursuing an online degree to provide expert advice and help the student have a smooth learning journey. I had my first meeting with my Study Coach Nina today. She is a thorough professional and an expert in the field. She gave useful tips to improve my learning strategies and made me feel more confident to move ahead. I am glad I enrolled at IU for my MBA.

  • Khalid

Their online program is extremely poor. Very poor learning material. Almost Zero synchronous lectures. It is more a self learning program. Very poor grading. Worst communication. You have to wait for months to get replies of your emails. Before you sign a contract they reply your emails in 5 minutes, even they call you to convince you to get admission. Once you are trapped in a contract, no body cares about you. They give you provisional admission and start charging fee for months before they confirm or reject your admission officially. NOT recommended at all. (This review is based upon my wife’s admission in their BA Business administration program)

  • Rahul Mishra

Very poor staff, plus every staff will quote a different price for the tution fee You really cant trust them with money since they keep giving you different price from what is listed in their website Also they will force you into taking programs with higher duration since they make more money out of it, I specifically asked them for 60 ECTS program in data science since I have work experience but the staff kept discouraging me and kept forcing me to apply for 2 years program. It is wise to take everything on email. Plus nobody responds promptly on emails. And when they respond they will not bother to answer your question to the point.

  • Lina A.

Der Berliner Standort der IU gefällt mir unter anderem von der Lage her sehr gut. In unmittelbarer Nähe gibt es das Ringcenter, zahlreiche Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants und vieles mehr. Die Mitarbeitenden stehen jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite und nehmen schnell die Sorgen mancher Studierenden, die sich um das Thema Prüfungen drehen. Auch die Räumlichkeiten sind sehr ansprechend. Sie sind schön neu und gepflegt. Man merkt, dass es sich um eine private Hochschule handelt, die bereit ist, zu investieren. Schlechte Erfahrungen, wie sie manche teilen, habe ich als Studentin hier nicht gemacht.

  • Achshah R M

I am doing Bachelors in Applied Artificial Intelligence through distance learning option they are providing. It's been over 6 months and it's been great. They have expert teachers, advance resources and 24/7 assistance. One of the things i enjoy most is online library. If you like reading must check it out. They have communities where students can join, help each other and exchange culture. The best decision I ever made in my life is joining IU International University of Applied Siences and I am sure youu'll feel the same once you join us.

  • prakarsh sinha

I joined IU after considering a lot of reputed universities, but IU certainly stood out with their flexibility, soon enough I found myself enrolled in the course, I was very surprised with how affordable it was in contrast with the high quality of study material being provided. Currently, I am done with a few course, and I must say that the professors are very helpful, and the meticulous environment that IU provides with its distance learning programs is perfect incubator for people who aim to be the finest professionals in their fields.

  • Latheeswara Rao

It's flexible to study online. But you need to work hard for your assignments, workbooks, as these are different types of exams for you. I've experienced both doable and though assignments as well. And there is this entrance criteria for you before they register you fully, at the start you'll be enrolled conditionally only. You need to prove that you can do it. I've joined through upgrad, but their support system is there but you cannot expect everything as you we're in the college. So please choose wisely.

  • eri

Sketchy. I’ve submitted my documents already twice and yet advisors keep emailing me to send them again and again. They said they tried calling me but the only calls I’ve received were "no called ID" calls which i naturally didn’t answer. Why would a university hide their caller information ? After doing more research, i found that they have numerous reviews for extortion, awful organization, and bias against international students and applicants. Many strongly advise against enrolling in this school.

  • Sonali Ghosh

I am pursuing Masters in International Management (Major Hospitality). Though the first semester and half of the second semester was online, i wanted for offline classes , and finally this semester we got a chance to go to the university for the interactive sessions with our professors. The classes are interesting as our professors guide us to the right direction. Looking forward to learn more from IU University of applied sciences which is one of the best recognised institution.

  • Addyson Reimer

I started my time at IU in April 2020. It’s been filled with ups and downs as they’ve learned to shift with those unprecedented times. I love iu but hope for improvements to continue. I hope they listen to their students. And I hope they continue to expand their student council across the various campuses to have appropriate representation of the student bodies. Thankful for my time and the professors I’ve met.

  • Aravind venugopal

IU is one of the great place to start your studies or rather I can say resume your studies. I am from India and study system I used to is study for the exam and pass but the master's program with IU changed my view towards education. The professor's experience in the relevant fields of study made us think and make use of our ability . To conclude the best private university in Berlin to study.

  • Eromosere Etieyibo

The IU International University of Applied Sciences has been a wonderful platform and foundation for me, personally. The University has provided an opportunity for students, like myself to learn at their pace, and in their own way. Their constant support and assistance in all forms has provided a lovely platform for learning and sharing of academic experiences between colleagues.

  • Laura Victoria Barragan Knudson

I recommend this IU if you are looking for an international experience. If you are looking to stay in Germany or go back to your country it is a good place to study. The campus in Berlin is new and located in a very nice area. I loved their library system. From the application process till my graduation day I felt supported by the whole team.

  • Deniz Binboğa

They are literally scammers. Although we were legally promised 2 free semester extension and it was written on the contract, they are charging us very huge amount or money for the 2nd extension by changing contract even without informing us. When we object that, they threaten to cut you off from school. Do not prefer this commerce house

  • Florian Trabert

Sehr schlechte Hochschule. Die Qualität der Module ist nicht gut. Achtung bei dem Probemonat. Hier wird oft abgezockt. Wenn man etwas zu spät kündigt, werden einem die vollen 6 Monate des Semesters abgebucht, obwohl man die nicht mehr nutzen möchte. Absolute 0 Kulanz Kultur. Also Achtung, wenn man hier den Vertrag abschließt.

  • Oliver

I thought it would be simple but they refuse the official EQF Level 6 (Bachelor) equivalence to access the master. They ask me to take a Bachelor's again. I had my doubts but when a university does not comply with the Bologna agreements, there is a big problem...... Distrust of what is too good.....

  • Swapnil Kumar

I enrolled in MBA 90ECTS programme in July 2022. This is a hybrid programme and awesome experience I mean so far so good, IU team is highly supportive treat us like a best friend. Now I can say confidently feeling soo grateful to be a student of IU International University of Applied Sciences.

  • riya kaushik

Amazing place to learn and grow. I enrolled in blend masters program. So far my online experience is too good. Every thing is available on my campus platform and teams group. Professors are always helping. Extra seminars and networking events help to build the relevant skills and connections.

  • Ebenezer Osei Asibey Antwi

No institution is perfect, same as a human being but with IU, they are close to such perfection. Learn and study your way, network with international students from diverse and different background and experience flexibility in your study. I am glad to be a student of IU.

  • Sanketh pai

From meeting students from all over the globe to friendly professional faculties, experience at IU Bad Honnef had been an extraordinary journey of my study period. I recommended IU International University for students who wants to pursue with life changing experiences.

  • Ion Cravtov

I would recommend this place to all the people that want to experience Intercultural exchanges and make good connections for life, the professors are highly qualified, the only downside is some small problems with the management like in any other universities

  • Ahmed Ibrahim

I have applied for my B.Sc Business & IT for January 2024 , the thing that grabbed my attention is the way they treat their international students enhancing and flexibility to reach your future goals,Also pursuit your dream carrier with all the guidance.

  • Sudhish PS

Thank you for this excellent course. It was rigorous, robust, and very meaningful. I really enjoying the course, it was a great learning opportunity and I look forward to continuing to put the things I learned into real world practice.

  • Zlata Zhuravlova

I think 3 is fair score. 1. Most of Professors are really good. 2. Zero support for new students. 3. Some times hard to get info. 4. Corona time was awful, not organised. 5. Have a feeling that Uni cares about money and not students

  • North Patawee

They're not answering most of my email from me from the past 3 months. Maybe they've only 1 staff to answer 10 mails per day. For the tuition fee and their profit every year, they should hire more staff to work on every section.

  • Yashaswini Chinnappa

IU is a really friendly place to be, the staff is approachable and helpful. My student life lifestyle is brilliant and has been supportive and really welcoming. There are lots of opportunities to be around and gain new skills.

  • Louis Kleinke

Ich würde am liebsten keinen Stern geben. Es handelt sich bei der IU um ein Profit orientiertes Unternehmen. Trotz hoher Studiengebühren kommt die IU für so gut wie nichts auf. Ich rate jedem davon ab hier zu studieren.

  • Aryan Shringi

Researched alot and find this as one of the best place to study masters in online+on campus mode. As of now fees seems to be very high considering other options as well but definitely will try in some years to be here !

Info- Veranstaltung! Abreise 200 km für 20 min. Der Junge Mann war gut vorbereitet und freundlich, hat alle Fragen bereitwillig beantwortet. Am Ende muss man sagen, dass hätte man auch online machen können.

  • Qais Madanat

What I loved most was the knowledge you get, all the courses and materials are up to date with access to top libraries and recourses, in addition to the great flexibility you get as an on-line student.
