Support calculator

Dear students,
In order to relieve those who find themselves in dire straits, the student parliament has passed a support fund regulation that allows students with low incomes, children, and/or other special burdens to have their semester ticket fee ( ) refunded without having their ticket blocked.

This support calculator is designed to help you find out, without complicated calculations and legal assistance, whether the support fund regulations apply to you and whether it makes sense to apply for support.

Before submitting your application, please check whether there are reasons that would qualify you for a semester ticket refund. The regulations and requirements for refunds can be found in the AStA contribution regulations.

Although we take great care in creating the calculator, the results of these calculations are not legally binding and can only represent a trend. The data entered is processed exclusively for individual calculations and is not stored.

Here you can find the Application form to submit a request for support.

Feel free to contact the BAföG and social counseling for further advice in (financial) emergencies.
