For a titlepage I suggest to use a different mechanism to select a certain font style and size.
You can also use \definedfont[…]{…} instead of \startfont[…] … \stopfont.
\definemakeup[titlepage][doublesided=no]
\starttext
\starttitlepagemakeup[top=]
\startfont[Sans]
\startlines
information
about
university
and
course
\stoplines
\stopfont
\blank[4*line]
\startfont[SansBold sa d]
Paper
\stopfont
\blank
\startfont[SansBold sa b]
by me
\stopfont
\blank[4*line]
\startfont[Sans]
\startlines
my
information,
adress
etc.
\stoplines
\stopfont
\stoptitlepagemakeup
\stoptext
Wolfgang
