Copenhagen Business School's Buddy Programme

27/10/2021

Dear all future buddies! We are pleased to tell you that everything is back to normal after the pandemic. Hence, we will be hosting information meetings in-person once again. 😊

There will be two information meetings held on campus to provide more information about participating in the programme. It is recommended that all volunteering buddies, for the Spring semester 2022, attend one of the meetings. The first one will be November 24th at 16:15 in SPs10 and the second one will be December 13th at 16:15 in SPs05.

We hope to see as many of you as possible.

We are also still in need of quite a few volunteers, so if any of you have friends who might consider being a buddy, ask them to sign up and bring them along to our information meetings! 🤩

Dear CBS Buddies,

Tonight is the night! We are having the massive Buddy Party at Chateau Motel at 22:00 with more than 800 people!
There is free entrance from 22:00 - 24:00, with Buddy Card or Social Program Bracelet.
It takes a while to get 800 people into a club, so the earlier you arrive the shorter the line will be.

Very important!!!
Your exchange student(s) can only attend if they have purchased the Social Package for the Introduction Week.

We look forward to seeing you for a crazy night together!
