If you wish to take part in a language course “German for foreigners“, the courses run by the Johannes-Kepler-University of Linz are open to you free of charge. Details of these courses are available on the internet: http://www.jku.at
Accomodation is available at reasonable rates in the two student hostels run by the Katholische Hochschulgemeinde. In particular, the Petrinum hostel is not far from the KTU and would be convenient for you.
As the KTU is a small university, we do not organize an introductory event for new arrivals. However, the student representatives are at your disposal at any time, and will do their best to help you feel at home in Linz. The person to contact is Stefan Dorninger.
