Dear fellow students,
On October 27th, 2020, your student representatives met with our minister of science to exchange experiences regarding “Studying and financial aid”.
Many of you found yourself in a financial emergency after the first Corona restrictions and have not been able to completely recover from it since. Now students are faced with the problems of lockdown again.
The bridging aid provided for the students unfortunately turned out to be inadequate in the past for various reasons. Discussions are now underway to reactivate the summer emergency aid program.
Our request to you:
We would therefore like to ask you to participate in the following petition in order to significantly improve the bridging aid for the coming period.
If you have financial problems at the moment, there are other offers of help from the Studentenwerk:
Applications and information can be found here (german only):
