If you are new to the Yam Haus family here is what you should know: Yam Haus is a band formed out of long friendships and a shared dream. The band is comprised of Lars (lead vocals, guitar), Jake (drums), Seth (lead guitar), and Zach (bass). The band officially formed in Hudson, WI on September 23, 2017, as seen on their vlog on YouTube. Yam Haus is apart of a local record label, the Hover Coalition, based out of Hudson, founded by Jordan Erdman and Mark Heimermann. The guys have worked incredibly hard to put out their debut album, Stargazer, available June 15, 2018, and are excited to share their music and hearts with you! Yam Haus sold out their first headlining show this past year and was given the opportunity to play to a sold out crowd of over 1,200 at First Avenue in Minneapolis. It's been a great start. Yam Haus couldn’t have done this without you so once again, we cannot thank you enough for your role in this journey! We’re so excited to work with you and thanks for joining the Yam Haus Street Team.

  • Erfahrungsbericht University of Minnesota 2017/2018
    Erfahrungsbericht University of Minnesota 2017/2018 Ich bin gerade seit knapp einer Woche aus Minnesota zurück und kann euch, ähnlich der meisten Vorberichte, die University of Minnesota nur wärmstens ans Herz legen. Ich habe zwei Semester an der Carlson School of Management studiert, habe allerdings auch Kurse in den Fachbereichen Informatik und Angewandte Volkswirtschaftslehre belegt. Vorbereitung Zwecks Vorbereitung sind neben der Bewerbung für das Direktaustauschprogramm an der FU noch der TOEFL Test und die Visa Beantragung zu erledigen, wegen beider ihr euch allerdings nicht fertig machen müsst. Der TOEFL hat um die zwei Wochen Bearbeitungszeit nach dem Testtag und der Termin für das Visum kann ein paar Wochen dauern kann, dafür ist das Konsulat allerdings nahe der FU in Dahlem. Flug Ich bin direkt von Frankfurt am Main mit Condor nach Minneapolis geflogen, was ziemlich praktisch war, da ich so zwar immer noch relativ günstig wegkam, allerdings trotzdem kein Layover und somit übermäßig langen Flug hatte, wodurch die Ankunft in Minneapolis sehr entspannt war. Ihr braucht durch das J-1 Visum bei der Einreise noch keinen Rückflug, falls ihr noch nicht sicher seid, von wo oder wohin ihr zurückfliegt. Ich hatte bei der Einreise in die USA auch noch keinen. Ich würde auf alle Fälle empfehlen ein oder zwei Wochen vor Ankunft der Vorlesungen und somit pünktlich zu diversen Kennenlern-Events anzureisen, dadurch hat man Zeit Leute kennenzulernen und diverse Erledigungen zu machen, sowie ein bisschen die Stadt und den Campus kennenzulernen. Ankunft Falls ihr an der Business School studieren werdet, gibt es dort ein sehr praktisches Buddy Programm, an dem ihr automatisch teilnehmt.
