Do you have any alumni network or connections to help me connect with students in Germany for better clarity?
We do not run a personal network, but we can point you to real ones. Try the DAAD and Humboldt Community, university alumni pages on LinkedIn for schools like LMU Munich, and XING, the dominant professional network across German speaking countries for local student connections.
We do not maintain a personal alumni network, but you can tap into several established ones to connect directly with students and graduates in Germany. Your best move is combining an official platform with a university specific search, then reaching out with a focused question rather than a generic hello. Here is where to start.
Platforms To Find Germany Based Students And Alumni
| Platform | Best For |
|---|---|
| DAAD and Humboldt Community | Official network for scholarship holders, alumni, and students tied to Germany |
| University alumni portals / LinkedIn pages | Location and field filtered alumni search at schools like TU Munich or RWTH Aachen |
| Groups like Studying in Germany or Expat students Germany | |
| Dominant professional network in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland |
How We Can Help You Reach Out
- Draft polite, culturally appropriate outreach messages in English or German.
- Research specific universities, admission criteria, or student life details for your field.
- Prepare a list of key questions to ask once you connect with a real student.
My Advice
Set up a XING profile alongside your LinkedIn one this week, then message three current students at your target German university with one specific question each, since a focused ask gets far more replies than a general request to connect.
