Few sources are available about Fritz Pfeffer's studies. What is known is that he studied medicine and dentistry in Würzburg and Berlin. In the winter semester 1908-1909 to summer semester 1909, and then summer semester 1910 to summer semester 1911, he studied 'Medizin' at the University of Würzburg.[1] In later semesters, his younger brother Ernst Pfeffer also studied 'Medizin' in Würzburg.[2] During the two periods he attended Würzburg University, Pfeffer lived at the following addresses:

  • Pleichertorstraße 12
  • Gerberstraße 19
  • Sterngaße 7.[2]

Fritz Pfeffer wass a member of the Akademisch-wissenschaftlichen Verbindung Veda during his studies in Würzburg.[3] This was the only one of the many Würzburg societies (Burschenschaften) open to all religions, including Jews.[4]

He graduated in 1911 and then worked as an assistant for some time. Clear dating of the study period in Berlin is not possible based on the available sources. In Berlin, he practised from October 1912. In March 1920, he was promoted to 'Dr med. dent.'[5]
