Frankfurt am Main is Germany's financial capital, home to around 781,000 residents and roughly 69,000 students across about 18 universities. While the skyline defines the city's image, student life unfolds between the apple-wine taverns of Alt-Sachsenhausen, the converted bars of the Bahnhofsviertel and the green banks of the Main. Studying here means moving between lectures on the Campus Westend, techno nights on Frankfurt's outskirts and festivals right by the river.
