Due to Fall 2020 public health disruptions, the Academic Year in Freiburg (AYF) program is offering a special Winter-only term, running from March 1 to August 6, 2021.

By studying in Freiburg, you can practically earn credits for a German major and may possibly get distribution credits and/or credits towards a second major; and you will live in one of the most attractive and desired places in Germany. This program is open to all University of Michigan undergraduate students.

Eligibility:
* Minimum 3.0 GPA
* Good academic standing
* Sophomore, Junior, or Senior standing by Winter 2021
* Completion of German 232 or equivalent prior to January 2021

Tuition for this program is covered by a program fee ($9,000), and students receive University of Michigan in-residence credit for the courses they take during the term in Freiburg. Students will not pay University of Michigan tuition. Additional costs include travel, room, and board. The latter two are considerably cheaper than housing in Ann Arbor is. You will live in a single in a student dorm in Freiburg.

Students remain eligible for financial aid. In addition, the German Department will reduce the program fee for all applicants. Further funding opportunities are available from the department as well; to inquire, please contact germandept@umich.edu.

The regular Academic Year in Freiburg (AYF) 2021/2022 program is scheduled to take place. The registration deadline will be December 1, 2020. Registrations for that program will be accessible later in September.
