PIASTA registration and rules

You can register for all events that require registration online via UHH Join. Places are allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. Your registration is only complete after you have paid the registration fee! You will find more information about UHH Join here.

1.    Our events target all (international and German) students and doctoral students enrolled at Universität Hamburg as well as those enrolled in the pre-semester preparatory course or Studienkolleg Hamburg.
2.    Graduates are only allowed to participate in seminars and workshops relating to jobs, internships, and the first career steps in the first two years after graduating.
3.    Students from other universities are welcome to attend the Intercultural PIASTA Evenings and to visit the Language Café, but unfortunately cannot participate in events that require registration. (The cultural events and leisure activities subsidized by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) as well as the free seminars and workshops are only open to students of Universität Hamburg. Given that demand exceeds the number of places available for your chosen event, we are unfortunately also unable to make any exceptions.)
4.    HafenCity University Hamburg (HCU): HCU students are also able to register for the PIASTA Language Tandem Service.

You can easily cancel your registration for an event on UHH Join with a single click. Just click the “Cancel” button in your confirmation and reminder email, in your UHH Join Timetable, or directly in the event description on UHH Join. You will find mor Information about UHH Join here.

If you do not participate in an event you have registered for in the category of “Seminar and Workshops” or “Cultural Events and Leisure Activities” three times and did not cancel in advance, you will no longer be allowed to register for further PIASTA events.

Please remember to cancel your registration well in advance next time so that your place can be offered to other students. You can easily cancel your registration for an event on UHH Join with a single click.

If you enter incorrect or different email addresses, you won’t be able to receive important notifications. If your information is incorrect or incomplete, your registration will be canceled. If we determine that you have registered using the wrong name or wrong student ID number, you will not be allowed to register for any more of our events. We would consider this action as a deliberate attempt to deceive.

Your registration details will only be used by us to organize events (emails, e.g., advising of the meeting place), send you the newsletter, and evaluate events. They will not be passed on to third parties. When you register, you will receive our weekly newsletter with invitations to international events. If you no longer wish to receive this, please simply click here to unsubscribe. You will find more information about privacy on UHH Join here.
