Customer communications with international students
Mr. Akshay Tanwar has been a great support to me.
From the very first day I applied and received my conditional offer, he reached out to me regarding his course and guided me on digital and AI matters in line with my future goals.
Also I appreciate Mr. Mohammed Nayeemuddin support on my visa application process. he has guided me step by step - from the day I was admitted to the school to this very moment as I’m waiting for my visa appointment.
Because of my experience with these two gentlemen, I believe the school is well-managed and that international students are well-guided. It shows that students will receive proper guidance according to their goals, their purpose, and with humility.
Thank you.

From my personal experience
From my personal experience, it was very easy to communicate with my advisor during the whole matriculation process. She guided me step by step throughout the matriculation process with professionalism and patience, making everything clear and simple to understand. Whenever I had questions or concerns, she was always supportive and by the end of it I had all my doubts cleared. Her help made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and I really appreciate her dedication and assistance.

Very helpful assistance and communications throughout the admission procedure
I've been having a stressful time getting ready for the student visa due to multiple embassy closures and internet shut downs in my country. Mr. Srihari Airpula helped me every step of the way, by giving me guidance, providing me with the required documents, contacted different departments such as admission and finance multiple times on behalf of me to ease the procedure for me. I really appreciate his help and hope to get my visa as soon as possible and be there in Germany to start my studies,

1. The school cares about international students.
Mr. Gatoj Srikanth has been a great support to me. From the very first day I received my conditional offer, he reached out to me regarding his course and guided me on business matters in line with my future goals.
Even now, he has guided me step by step — from the day I was admitted to the school to this very moment as I work on meeting the other requirements for my visa. He continues to guide me through every stage, from level one to level two to level three.
Whenever I have doubts, he calls me back immediately and always clarifies everything for me. He speaks like a disciplined, well-mannered young man.
Because of Mr. Gatoj Srikanth, I believe the school is well-managed and that international students are well-guided. It shows that students will receive proper guidance according to their goals, their purpose, and with humility.
Thank you.

I’m currently studying at GISMA…
I’m currently studying at Gisma University of Applied Sciences, and my experience so far has been positive and professionally enriching.
One thing I appreciate most is the international environment. I get to study with people from different backgrounds, which has really helped me grow both academically and personally. The programmes are designed with a strong practical focus, especially in areas like business, AI, and data science, which are highly relevant to today’s job market.
The lecturers are supportive and approachable, and many of them bring real industry experience into the classroom. I also value the career support services and workshops that help students prepare for internships and future roles in Germany.
Like any university, there are areas that can continue improving, especially communication and administrative response times at peak periods, but overall I feel Gisma provides a good learning platform for international students who want to build a career in Europe.
I’m glad I chose to study here and would recommend it to students looking for an international, career-focused academic experience in Germany.
