A place the best call home
Strong leaders emerge at EBS Universitaet. We have a strong foundation of
expertise to prepare our graduates for future challenges. Our high standards are reflected in everything
we do – including our location.
EBS Universitaet is located in one of Germany's most beautiful, historic regions: the Rheingau. The Upper Middle Rhine Valley was
designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002. Campus Schloss
(Schloss Reichartshausen) overlooks the Rhine River and is surrounded by its vineyards.
Schloss
Reichartshausen has been home to EBS since 1980. Its location and
ambience make the estate an extraordinary place indeed. More than two
thousand students think, learn and live here in an atmosphere close to
American college culture. Like America‘s elite universities, EBS offers
exceptional teaching of an outstanding calibre and a life-shaping campus experience. Every student who embarks on their path to a successful future with us feels this. There‘s plenty of room for doers.
Student life
Room for doers and the EBSpirit
We attach great importance to life on campus,
not only in terms of university teaching but also as a place for
socializing, exchanging ideas, and engaging in shared activities. Students play a
key role in this by making the
campus a lively community meeting place and event location. From sports
activities to cultural events and networking events, EBS offers numerous
opportunities to add a multi-faceted experience to your studies.
Leadership personalities who want to make a difference in the world
Teams
always trump individuals. That‘s why we have focused on collaboration
since day one. We encourage our students to work together and motivate
them to grow with others in real teams. Working in student initiatives,
they organise conferences together, interact socially, play sports, get
stuck into fintech, and even make their own wine. This instills a sense
of belonging and creates the unique bond that makes us an academic
alliance for life – the EBS family.
Cost of Living
Students typically find accommodation in shared flats, private
apartments, or student residences in and around Oestrich-Winkel. The
region offers a welcoming community, short distances to campus and the
chance to experience one of Germany's most beautiful cultural landscapes
while studying.
Below is an estimate of what you should expect to spend each month
while studying at EBS.
Accommodation: 450-750 euros/month
Health insurance: 130 euros/month
Food: 250 euros/month
Course material: up to 50 euros per course
Clothing & leisure: 50-100 euros (depending on individual preferences)

Is EBS an international university?
Internationality is in the DNA of EBS Universitaet: EBS founder

young entrepreneurs from all over the world could become the people who
shape our society: international, multilingual, personally ambitious,
professionally capable and courageous in business. Naturally, this
is reflected in all our degree programmes. The general language of
education is English. We offer language and cultural tuition courses
(e.g.
German, French, Spanish or Chinese) for all our students. A period of
study
abroad is an integral part of the programme and offers a valuable
opportunity to
broaden your cultural, professional and personal horizons. Campus life
is characterised by a multicultural and open-minded atmosphere.
