BAföG Counseling

Our BAföG-Counseling Services are mainly directed at students experiences extraoardinary issues or complicated problems with their BAföG. These can, for example, result from a change of studying courses, a stay abroad, a delayed intermediate examination, or from exceeding the limit of one’s standard period of study.

We ask you to handle simple matters (such as the filling out of forms) with the clerks at the “Studentenwerk”.

Any questions? Please write us an email to: ischulz@rz.uni-leipzig.de or bafoeg@stura.uni-leipzig.de.


To assure that we can help you out in a more complete fashion, we advise you to reach out to us via telephone during our regular operating hours.

Important note: Our counseling services cannot replace the professional advice offered by the “Studentenwerk”!
