Everyday study life

Students can only concentrate on their studies if everyday student life runs smoothly. This is especially true for students with disabilities, who often have to organize much more than their fellow students without disabilities.

Prospective students with disabilities and chronic illnesses should find out as early as possible about the living and study conditions at their preferred university locations.

Housing - mobility - leisure time

Depending on the respective impairment and the university location, various aspects can play a central role for disabled students: for example, housing, mobility, medical care and leisure activities.

• Housing
• mobility
• Dining halls + cafeterias
• University sports

Health insurance

For students with disabilities and chronic illnesses, the choice of health insurance is of great importance, as they must be able to rely on optimal medical care to a particularly high degree. In particular, the decision to take out statutory or private health insurance should be considered very carefully. This is because the decision cannot be revoked during your studies.

Contributions and fees

Students must remember to re-register on time each semester, pay the semester contribution and transfer broadcasting fees. For students with disabilities, regulations on exemptions or reductions may be relevant.

Severely disabled student card: yes or no?

Many students with disabilities ask themselves the question: Do I need a disabled person's pass to study? Does it make sense? Or will it worsen my career prospects? - The answer to this depends very much on the individual case.
